Golden Mainz Day Trip
Located 40 km away from Frankfurt, on the river Rhine, one of the busiest rivers in the world, Mainz lies in the middle of a huge wine-growing area. It’s famous for its University, its Roman and Jewish heritage, its status as a media hub and regional capital, and its four most defining features: the Romanesque cathedral, the Gutenberg printing press, Marc Chagall, and the Rhineland carnival.
People later called it the “Golden City” – just like Jerusalem, Prague, and Rome. For many centuries its archbishops and prince-electors were amongst the most important rulers in the heart of Europe, the symbol of their power, the mighty cathedral, still standing after a thousand years.
This rich cultural heritage incorporates a well-established winegrowing tradition, which only adds to Mainz’s unique appeal. And not to forget the wonderful Christmas market during the winter season.
Immerse yourself in the art, culture, and history of the city and let yourself be enchanted by the beauty of by-gone eras.
Follow the footsteps of well-known figures that will fascinate you with unusual views of the city.
