The old town of Mainz bears the marks of a long and eventful past, which is still clearly reflected in the cityscape today. It is visible in the mighty medieval cathedral, in the historic patrician houses, in the Elector's Palace, as well as in the narrow, winding streets and atmospheric squares. This historical heritage is complemented by modern buildings such as the town hall built in 1971 by the Danish architect Arne Jacobsen, the Brand shopping center, the Rheingoldhalle, and Fort Malakoff, which illustrate the city's ongoing…
The farmstead, which was built in the 1920s, offer a cross vault cellar which was reconstructed into a restaurant which can host up to 50 persons.

The Lutheran church in the west of the city centre was built between 1910 and 1912 according to plans by Prof. Friedrich Pützer. It is easy to recognise the strong echoes of Darmstadt Art Nouveau with sparse ornamentation on the outside. The octagonal Luther rose appears several times throughout the church. The single-nave hall building has a pulpit altar.
Through the door behind the altar of the impressive cross-shaped hall from 1775, one enters the medieval tower, which once formed the chancel of the predecessor building. From there, a modern staircase leads up to the pulpit through the former east window. On the walls, as well as particularly in the deep window recesses of the three tower windows, high-quality wall paintings from around 1420 have been preserved. They depict, among other things, scenes from the Passion and Resurrection of Christ, including Christ on the Mount of Olives, the…
