From Kirschgarten to the Vibrant Wine Town
The starting point in the heart of Mainz's Old Town creates a special atmosphere: half-timbered houses, narrow alleys, and urban life meet here with the history of a city shaped by viticulture for centuries. On the way to the wine market, connections between trade, church, Rhine, and the development of wine culture become visible.
