Mainz Information
Sightseeing &
Entertainment
Without doubt: Mainz has an
impressive past. Sometimes the Roman relics give away the fact that
it has a 2 000 year heritage, sometimes the magnificent baroque
buildings remind one of the times of the Electors. The best
architects and the most talented sculptors created the general
character of the city in the 17th century and founded unique palaces
for the nobility, as well as new churches. Already since the Roman
era, the central city on the Rhine was the bishop's see.
Mainz has no shortage of
self-confidence, or of enthusiasm. It has good reason for this., i. e.
that tradition and progress show no signs of flagrant contradictions
can be seen and clearly revealed in daily life. After a 2 000 year
history, Mainz has remained young. Where once Romans, the Emperor
Barbarossa, the Bible printer Gutenberg or acknowledged Electors made
their mark, now people and economics have made this Rhine metropolis
their picturesque home.
