Mainzer Dom nw - The Mainzer Dom, Symbol of the City

Once the episcopal seat of the influential Prince-Electors and the "civilized" origins of Mainz date back to around 38 BC, when the Romans built a fortress here, named Mogontiacum. It was established by the Roman general Drusus, brother of emperor Tiberius and father of emperor Claudius, at the strategic confluence of the Rhine and the Main; it shortly became the provincial capital of Germania Superior. Drusus died while campaigning beyond the Rhine, in the summer of 9 BC; his body was brought here to be mourned, and a massive funeral monument dedicated to him was built. The so-called Drususstein still stands (although unclad of its marble) inside the fortress of Mainz.

The city's location at the confluence of the Rhine and the Main rivers 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 and the Gothic Church of Street Martin and Street 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 and the inventor of the moveable type printing press.

Mainz is also the home of the music publisher Schott Music.

Halal Food & Restaurants

Mainz has two culinary specialities, both types of Cheese. Spundekäse is local cream Cheese whipped with cream into a soft paste, served with chopped raw onion and pretzels — the taste is mild and it goes great with soft drinks. Handkäse is a sour milk Cheese with a pungent aroma, most often served mit Musik, or marinated in vinegar and oil and then sprinkled with caraway seeds, resulting in a bizarre, firm, gelatinous mass that most people find to be a bit of an acquired taste — and the "music" refers to the flatulence it tends to cause!
