Handbook for individual discovery
The Rheingau and Rheinhessen are among the oldest German cultural landscapes. Many peoples formed the region in southwest Germany. Romanesque and Gothic architecture are at home here, but modernity has long been here as well. An armada of winegrowers also leaves its mark on the region, as Germany's best wines ripen on the slopes to the right and left of the river.
Mainz is unique! The Rhine and the wine, singing and laughing, Det and Fritzchen, Gutenberg and the cathedral: all of this is absolutely part of Mainz - just like happiness.
With this book in one hand and your child in the other, you will get to know a whole new Mainz.

No one in Ingelheim can get past the imperial palace or the castle church. But who knows that in the High Middle Ages thousands of pilgrims went singing and dancing through Ingelheim every year? That the former Gasthaus zur Pfalz in Frei-Weinheim was first a church?
