At the beginning of the 19th century, the Mainz fortress was expanded. This also included the construction of the Reduit barracks on the strategically important bridge over the Rhine. In the immediate vicinity of the historic building, you can relax wonderfully today, stroll along the bank or stop in one of the restaurants such as Bastion Schönborn. Incidentally, the Mainz-Kastel district nowadays does not belong to Mainz, but to Wiesbaden, and thus to Hesse.

View of Mainz Cathedral and skyline

Highlight • Viewpoint

It's almost like the "small" skyline of Frankfurt am Main. A very nice picture. The downer in the view is the huge new building, which is now directly in front of the cathedral.

Main estuary

Highlight • River

Opposite the Mainspitze you can watch the hustle and bustle on the Main and Rhine in a relaxed manner. Here is the beginning or end of the Main Cycle Path, depending on the cyclist's destination. For shipping, it is kilometer zero on the Main. Up on the Rhine bridge the trains are moving briskly, down below the fat barges turn from the Rhine into the Main or from the Main into the Rhine, you can feel the pure power of the machines during maneuvers. There is all sorts of activity on the bike and footpaths, it seems as if all the nations of the world are on the move here. And if you want, you can wave to the cyclists on the Mainspitze. A silent reply is certain, as a shadow wave, so to speak.

Mainz Railway Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The steel railway truss bridge is simply called Südbrücke and connects Mainz across the Rhine with Gustavsburg. A curiosity: The northern of the two towers made of red brick at the western (Mainzer) end of the bridge is inhabited.
