Christ Church

Conceived as a representative counterweight to the cathedral, the 80-metre-high dome of the Christuskirche stands out architecturally from the ensemble of church towers in the city centre. The history of the Christuskirche is closely connected with that of the Mainz Protestants, who set with this church a sign of their self-confidence. mehr lesen ...

St. Peter's

All the glory of the rococo seems to have gathered in St. Peter's and shines in bright gold - fresh as on the first day. With good reason: In 1989, the elegant church with the twin onion towers was returned to the community as new after more than ten years of restoration. mehr lesen ...

New Synagogue

Mainz is one of the oldest Jewish communities in Europe. In the Middle Ages, the city was the centre of Jewish teaching and religion. The main synagogue, built in 1912, was plundered and set on fire during the pogrom night from 9 to 10 November 1938. 70 years after its destruction by the National Socialists, Mainz again received a visible sign for a new, lively Judaism in 2010. mehr lesen ...

Synagogue of Weisenau

The synagogue in Mainz-Weisenau was built in 1737/38. It is the only synagogue in Mainz that survived the period of National Socialism. Two Mikwen (ritual dipping baths) were found in the forecourt of the synagogue. These Mikwen from the baroque time and the middle of the 19th century make the Weisenauer synagogue unique in Germany. mehr lesen ...
