Nowhere else are there as many medieval castles as on this inimitable section of the Rhine, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in June 2002. To mention just three of them: Ehrenbreitstein Fortress at the Deutsches Eck in Koblenz, Stolzenfels Castle and the uniquely well-preserved Marksburg Castle in Braubach, to mention just three.
A thousand years after it was built, this mighty cathedral still dominates the cityscape and has shaped the city’s history.
This tour, which takes about 55 minutes, starts and ends at Gutenbergplatz by Staatstheater (“state theatre”) near the cathedral and takes you past the major sights. You will be driven through narrow lanes and will be able to view the attractive domestic architecture, the cathedral, the Citadel, the Elector’s Palace, the regional parliament and the New Synagogue.
You can experience four millennia of written culture from all around the world in the Gutenberg Museum. The Mainzer Johannes Gutenberg plays one of the leading roles in this. After all, some 550 years ago he made letters using a casting device and invented the first printing press.
