Mainz is a German city on the Rhine River. It’s known for its old town, with half-timbered houses and medieval market squares. In the center, the Marktbrunnen is a Renaissance fountain with red columns. Nearby, a distinctive octagonal tower tops the Romanesque Mainz Cathedral, built of deep red sandstone. The Gutenberg Museum honors the inventor of the printing press with exhibits, including 2 of his original bibles.
Strategically situated at the confluence of the Rhine and Main Rivers, Mainz has been the capital of the German federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate since 1946. This lively city has a sizeable university, pretty pedestrian precincts and a savoir vivre dating from Napoleon's occupation (1797–1814). Strolling along the Rhine and sampling local wines in a half-timbered Altstadt tavern are as much a part of any Mainz visit as viewing the fabulous Dom, Chagall’s ethereal windows in St-Stephan-Kirche, or the first printed Bible in the bibliophile paradise of the Gutenberg Museum.
Once the episcopal seat of the influential Prince-Electors, the civilized origins of Mainz date back to around 38 BC, when the Romans built a citadel here. The city's location at the confluence of the Rhine and the Main is ideal for trade, something reflected by the artifacts kept in the Landesmuseum, that show there have been settlements here since 300,000 BC.
The most logical starting point is the Dom, the Cathedral of St Martin and St Stephan, especially on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, when the farmers' market is open. Although the cathedral was actually started in 975, most of what is seen today was built from the 11th to the 13th centuries. At the Dom und Diözesanmuseum in the cathedral cloisters, you can truly witness the opulence and wealth controlled by the Church in Mainz.
Mainz is also the home of the man identified by Time Magazine as the most important individual in the last millennium, Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of the moveable type printing press. Mainz is also the home of the music publisher Schott Music.

Germany Trave Attractions - Tour of Mespelbrunn Castle
Take a tour of Mespelbrunn Castle, Germany -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats.
Nestled in the lush green landscape of the Bavarian town of Mespelbrunn, Germany, is the Mespelbrunn Castle.
As scenic as fairytale palaces and as lavish as the extravagant castles in the movies, this enigmatic structure will allure you with its beauty.
Tall towers, graceful stone columns, lovely porches and courtyards only add to its rustic charm.
Counts of Ingelheim, one of the royal German families, are the owners of this castle today and also reside here.
Interestingly, the prolific structure we see today emerged from an ordinary house.
Set in the laps of a serene valley surrounded by a lovely pond, for many it is a perfect romantic destination.
