Rioters looted shops in central Frankfurt late on Saturday as clashes erupted in German cities over the cost of living.
There were also incidents of violence in Berlin, Cologne and Hamburg, with police saying they used water cannon to disperse protesters targeting emergency workers with fireworks, stones and bottles.
Thousands joined largely peaceful demonstrations earlier in the day, organised by the campaign group Gen Z regelt, to protest against underfunding in schools, the high cost of living, public spending cuts and military service.
The unrest in Germany follows similar youth-led mass protests in France, where more than 320,000 people also demonstrated on Saturday.

Parts of England are in severe drought, with some reservoirs falling to record lows after the hottest summer on record.
Water restrictions like hosepipe bans have been widely introduced in parts of the country.
The UK government said more than £100bn is being invested in water infrastructure, with nine new reservoirs in the pipeline.
But, as droughts are expected to become more frequent and intense, questions are being asked about the long-term resilience of our water supply.
