Mainz
Mainz is a city in Germany and the capital of the German federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate. Mainz is located on the river Rhine across from Wiesbaden, in the western part of the Frankfurt Rhine Main Area.- Romanesque cathedral (one of Germany's oldest; others are in: , )
- "Stephanskirche", world-famous Chagall windows (blue)
- River Banks with lots of restaurants and (night) clubs.
The 'Theodor-Heuss-Bridge' in the centre of Mainz.
- The Theodor Heuss Rhine Bridge between Mainz and is one of three Rhine bridges that connect Mainz with and the state of . Like almost all other German Rhine bridges, the former bridge had been destroyed in World War II. The bridge was rebuilt in the early 1950s and named after the first president of the Federal Republic of Germany, Theodor Heuss. Kastel, a former Mainz suburb and several other villages on the right side of the Rhine, has been separated from the city after the war, as the Rhine was the border between the French and American occupation sectors. Even today, Kastel, Kostheim, Amoeneburg, Ginsheim, Gustavsburg and the other former suburbs consider themselves part of Mainz, although they are administered by Wiesbaden and Hesse.
Mainz City Hall.
- The City Hall was built in the early 1970s by Danish architects, who used many tons Swedish marble for the facade. Considered at the time it was built, the city hall is not very popular today, many consider it too monumental, some even ugly. From the extensive city hall platform there is a beautiful view on the Rhine promenade and the river.
- Schillerplatz. Beautiful, leafy square in central Mainz with the fountain said to represent the jesters and fun of Mainz's fastnacht celebration.
- Mainz is also the home of the man identified by Time magazine as the most important individual in the last millennium, Johannes Gutenberg, inventor of the moveable type printing press. At the Gutenberg Museum (Liebfrauenpl 5, Ph: 011 49 06131 1266-4044, Website: www.gutenberg.de), there are reconstructions of print shops and Gutenberg's hand press, an exhibition of incunabula, and the first two Gutenberg bibles are on display in a strong room. They also have a section devoted to the far East with colored woodcarvings and prints from Japan, China and Korea.
- Unique to Mainz is the Museum für Antike Schifffahrt (Museum of Ancient Navigation), where the remains of five 5th century Roman warships have been restored. These ships were found when the local Hilton was expanding its property.
