In the Footsteps of the Jewish History of Mainz 05

This city walk connects football history, city history, and Jewish life in Mainz into an impressive discovery experience. Nils Friedrich leads through places where memories of 1. FSV Mainz 05 and Jewish Mainz personalities vividly intertwine.

From Club History to City Narration

Starting from the founding place of the club, a guided tour unfolds through the old and new town up to Mombacher Straße. The focus is on people who were associated with Mainz 05 as players, coaches, officials, or patrons until 1933, whose biographies have long been overshadowed by memory.

Historic Places with Strong Impact

The walk makes visible how closely the history of the club is intertwined with the biographies of Jewish members. Stations like Dr.-Gisela-Thews-Platz, the Old Jewish Cemetery Judensand, and other city historical places give the tour a special emotional depth. Local history is not only told here but can be experienced at concrete locations.

Knowledge that Moves and Touches

Nils Friedrich has researched the life paths of numerous Jewish members of 05 and presents them knowledgeably for a broad audience. The city tour follows the traces of exclusion, displacement, and remembrance and contextualizes them within the history of the state capital Mainz. This results in a cultural enrichment that goes far beyond a classic stroll.

SchUM Culture Days with Special Depth

The event takes place as part of the SchUM Culture Days and connects to the rich Jewish history of the region. The walk provides a rare insight into the connections between sports, city identity, and Jewish heritage. Anyone wanting to understand Mainz anew will experience a city tour with substance and stance.

Conclusion: This city walk opens a moving access to Mainz 05 and to the Jewish history of the city. Anyone seeking cultural-historical exploration, authentic places, and well-founded knowledge should not miss this date and book now.
