EXPERIENCE MORE IN MAINZ

Zest for life on the Rhine – that is the city of Mainz. Here, 2,000 years of culture and the traces of influential personalities can be experienced.

The city welcomes all travelers with the open and warm manner of the people of Mainz. This special "mainz feeling" accompanies you on your journey of discovery through earlier times. Both Johannes Gutenberg with his world-changing invention and the Romans and their relics characterize the cityscape to this day. With vineyards right on the doorstep, it's no wonder that the best wines can also be enjoyed in the rustic Mainz wine taverns. During an evening together with "Weck, Worscht un Woi" (bread, sausage and wine) you get closer and start talking to strangers who don't stay strangers for long. Whether as the culmination of a business appointment or as the start of a Mainz weekend - let yourself go.
