Mainz Cathedral in Mainz
Description
Nice historical cathedral with amazing architecture. We went on a Sunday so it was quite busy and a little chaotic with churchgoers amd tourists, but if thats your thing then go for it!
MoreThe center of old town. Very impressive cathedral.
Amazing new organ. A masterpiece of its kind. The pipes are massive!
Beautiful red sandstone Cathedral,lovely cloistered area and gardens,fantastic fresh produce market held in market place at front of building on a Friday.
MoreGreat cathedral. You should visit inside as well. Beautiful from all angles.
It’s a must visit while visiting Rhine region. The remarkable cathedral and its dome sits in the old town. The architecture is magnificent with high arches, tombs for historical influential people and central old sculptures. It’s captivating just wandering around. And feels so peaceful sitting inside. There is a nice courtyard inside the cathedral.
Moregorgeous interior. also unique when comparing to other churches in germany
Came here on a Saturday afternoon with my husband and three kids ages 6, 4, and 2. This is the best cathedral Ive been to with kids, mainly because there was beautiful organ music playing the whole time that made it much less stressful having semi-loud children. There was SO much to look at, and we loved strolling through all the different side rooms and halls. Im not normally a cathedral person but we thoroughly enjoyed this one. Not a ton of things that the kids wanted to touch but couldnt - most of it is high up where they cant reach, or blocked off. The bathrooms were so-so; 50 cents per person and small. We parked nearby at Parkhaus am Brand, which was an easy-to-get-to underground garage and very reasonably priced (12 euros for 7ish hours).
MoreSerene and calming 👌
Awesome cathedral! Feels so majestic
Amazing historical place. Must visit if you are visiting Mainz in Germany.
Wow, just wow. Such an amazing place.
In the city and it’s nice. In the weekend it’s very busy
Beautiful cathedral in the middle of Mainz Markt platz. A must see.
One of the cathedrals to be visited while in Germany. It is huge, and is architecturally beautiful. There is a serene silence in the cathedral which helps one to sit in silent reflection. I make it a point to go to the cathedral, whenever I visit Mainz.

Beautiful old Church in Mainz . It is getting some restoration presently
Sooo amazing and such an interesting architecture and history 😍
Overwhelming beauty, architecture and craftsmanship. Birthplace of the Third Crusade, most culturally significant place in all of Mainz.
MoreBeautiful building. Very calming environment and interesting piece of architecture. Loved my visit to see this cathedral
MoreA Romanesque masterpiece in a German town that you may never have heard of (until they teamed up with Pfizer and started developing a vaccine against COVID-19 here). Once the greatest Temple in Central Europe (back in the 11th century), still a spectacular landmark and the enduring symbol of Mainz.
MoreHad a great experience visiting this Cathedral. Architectural art and design are unequivocally breathtaking.
MoreSanctum of historic and spiritual relevance... A must-visit of visit... It just relieved my tensed mind... Would love to visit it more often
MoreOne of the main Churches of the city of Mainz. Wonderful place in and outside as well. Many good old sculptures inside the church. It is about 1.2 km from Mainz HBF
MoreAmazing architecture from the 15th century - must visit and must see.
Beautiful cathedral and its super huge! Peaceful vibe to wander and pray.
Beautiful cathedral with fascinating history. Especially stunning when the Christmas markets are on!
MoreLit a candle for my father who passed away about a week ago.Beautiful architecture and solemn atmosphere as befitting of a structure built more than a 1000 years ago
MoreBeautiful cathedral. The stained glass windows are really ornate. On a sunny day they would be stunning! Worth a visit.
MoreBeautiful cathedral. It’s a must see if you’re visiting Mainz.
Ok folks if you get a chance go see this place. Its over 1000 years old and I cant think of a word to describe it. I can see why they call this a house of God its just awsome and awsome isnt even the right word anyways take a stop in Mainz and see this unbelievable awsome church you WILL NOT be disappointed. If you also get a chance go around the back side of the church entrance and you will find the city square with a lot of great shopping and a few good places to eat...make this a stop on your next trip to Germany.
MoreBeautiful red sandstone Cathedral,lovely cloistered area and gardens,fantastic fresh produce market held in market place at front of building on a Friday.
MoreMainz Dom has the baroque vibes protected and Roman culture is engraved inside. There are so many details to be checked. You should visit and enjoy the sightseeing. There are thombs underneath for the old bishops and also a small room for praying. Furthermore if you want to learn more about there is a museum inside with a small entrance fee.
MoreAn imposing beautiful historic building with wonderful interior including a cloistered passageway around a courtyard
MoreBeautiful city. Cathedral and Gutenberg Museum are must sees.
Grand cathedral, central to everything Mainz. The architecture is magnificent, the paintings are exquisite. Must visit place in Mainz.
MoreBeautiful!! The different styles of Baroque & Romanesque history is Wonderful
Magnificent building , well spent time , plenty of rich history, highly advised to pay a visit👍
MoreThis place was nice as all Id ever seen. The architecture was great and almost larger than life, but it was not overdone, as some cathedrals are. The inside was nothing short of heavenly. The effigies and ornamentation was beautiful, while not being too grandscale that the point of worship was offset by the magnificence of the decor.
MoreOne of the many magnificent cathedrals that we visited. All are a bit similar to each other. Always feel guilty about spending so little time appreciating the design and workmanship. Hard to miss if walking around, it is near the main square. Good to sit for a while and admire the surroundings.
MoreLovely city for people watching and scenic walks
Beautiful old cathedral that is a dream for any photographer! Architectural details of this cathedral do not disappoint inside or out.. Highly recommend at least a short visit whilst in Mainz... 🇩🇪🖤❤️💛
MoreBeautiful old church. We spent bout 45 minutes inside.
Beautiful architecture here. Choir is spectacular at Sundays mass. Definitely worth a look and visit.
MoreLovely cathedral with a very peaceful inner court (to which there is unfortunately no public access).
MoreQuiet dark place, like from a scary move.
Impressive cathedral. We just came after Easter service and it was interesting still seeing all of the smoke lingering in the place.
MoreBeautiful church with a great Christmas Market in season
