The 18 best churches in Mainz

Very moving. The Chagall windows are just breathtaking. Visit in the early afternoon to see the church glowing in the most Devine stunning blue.

Church with amazing windows made by Schagal. A must-see in Mainz. Also the cloister next to the church is quite nice.

Hidden gem of Mainz! I have been outside in the church cloistered courtyard, which is relatively small but very beautiful and picturesque, many times, however this was my first time inside the church and I was really impressed. I had no idea there was such a beautiful church in Mainz! This place is known for its unique stained-glass windows in luminous blue that were created by Marc Chagall. The light coming through the windows was absolutely stunning and created an almost unreal ambience, I felt like being under water. I have never seen such beautiful lighting in any church I have visited (visited mid-day with clear skies, so nothing was blocking the sun beams to enter the church). I also enjoyed the beautiful modern Organs near the chancel with the altar. There is a little gift shop inside, where you can buy souvenirs like postcards, books and magnets mainly with the blue window theme. Church is wheel-chair accessible and there is no entrance fee. Totally recommend to visit this church as pictures don't really do justice, you must see it with your own eyes to have the full experience. Visited in May 2022.

Beautiful church has many Marc Chagall stain glass. On the negative side, watch you step a member of our party missed the small steps and was carted off to the hospital. Church staff could of cared less. We had to get her there on our own.

A place where you can feel your connection with the vast and be alone with your faith. Marc Chagall's stained glass windows are incredibly beautiful, you stop thinking and only the soul remains.

Stunning blue windows. The interior of the church bathed in blue is quite nice.

Beautiful cathedral in Mainz. The windows are amazingly beautiful.

Beautifully curated museum with several original printed books, specially 3 bibles. A very good printed demonstration, from the making of the letters to the final printed page, both in English and German with a replica of the printing machine. Negative: A very unhelpful large and seated guardian next to the interactive picture box, most interested in moving people along than in helping with the experience.

You are given a card that lets you activate some of the exhibits, and at the end you can print your photo in the style of block printing onto the card. There is a demonstration of printing and the presenter gave interesting facts and was very knowledgeable.

Awesome experience of the Gutenberg museum and in excellent opportunity to see one of the Gutenberg Bibles. Actually four of them. It's absolutely amazing that these were the first books printed by the Gutenberg press. A worthwhile experience to visit this historic place. Highly recommend visiting the Gutenberg museum and seeing the original Gutenberg Bible. They are absolutely priceless books as every single one of the 47 of them are different because they were sold as separate pages and made into books by the buyers after they purchase them which we understand is the price of a home to purchase the pages back when they were newly off the press

It's a small museum but very well done. When I visited in Nov 2025 they had the word "Moved" in the name to emphasize that it's final location is under renovation and it is just temporarily adjacent to the natural history museum. Indeed I almost wandered into the natural history museum trying to find it. The first room had a 3D table of Mainz and narrated a story of his life (both in English and German). Indeed in spite of what some past reviews said, the museum seems to have stepped up their game and most descriptions were in both German and English. The main attraction, the two original Bibles we're well displayed and surprisingly uncrowded. I was able to go back two and study them.

1.5 hours was NOT enough. Didn't get to the demonstrations upstairs. (I visited the "Moved!" version in June 2025.) Anyone in graphic design, journalism or communications will appreciate the overarching themes and attention to detail. The Bibles themselves, and the additional works displayed alongside them, were presented very well and in an interesting manner.

The Gutenberg Museum is a fascinating and well-worthwhile visit. While I was a bit confused by the natural history aspect, I soon discovered that the main exhibition is temporarily located inside the Natural History Museum—a detail that, once understood, didn't detract from the experience at all. My primary interest was learning more about Johannes Gutenberg, and the museum did an excellent job of that. The exhibits are fantastic, especially the chance to see some of the first printed bibles up close. I also appreciated the use of modern technology to make the history more relatable, particularly the fun machine that lets you create a selfie with a printed page. My only regret is that I didn't get to see a demonstration of the printing press in action. Overall, it's a great experience and excellent value for money.

It is a must see. Less than an hour away from Frankfurt airport. Parking is an issue. So plan your trip. The ticket is €10. Very nice shop and staff.

A stunning landmark right at the heart of Mainz! The cathedral is massive and full of history, with its beautiful Romanesque architecture and peaceful atmosphere. Walking inside feels like stepping back in time, with impressive stonework, chapels, and artworks to admire. The surrounding Domplatz adds to the charm, with plenty of cafés and shops around. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Mainz!

Impressive structure! Lots of history in the area yet, unlike other similar cathedral areas in other towns, this one feels lively amd young.. Definitely a different and welcome vibe!

The Mainz Cathedral is absolutely mesmerizing! The moment you step inside, you’re transported to another time. The massive pillars, soaring ceilings, and the way light filters through the stained glass—it’s like walking into a movie scene. Every corner tells a story. Peaceful yet majestic, this place leaves you in awe. If you visit Mainz and miss this cathedral, you’re truly missing out! ⛪✨

Beautiful cathedral. Lovely garden area as you come in. I was in a bit of a hurry so I was not able to figure out how to climb the tower but I hope I can come back sometime and try. Crypt was neat to see. Fun murals of gospel scenes above the clerestory level along the nave. Some interesting sid chapels to include one of the more vibrant colored crucifixion paintings I've seen in a cathedral.

Much larger than I thought. They have a “biggest bible” page there which isn’t that aesthetic but the rest of the cathedral is impressive. Definitely worth a stop.

The cathedral is beautiful. I came here on a Thursday afternoon and there was no wait at all and there was minimal people inside. Be careful if there is a service happening and be respectful of the space if so. There is a museum but I didn't go inside there. The architecture in the cathedral is worth the visit to come see. Be aware that as of may 2025 there is major construction happening on the outside of the cathedral so it is covered in scaffolding. Its free to enter the church but donations are welcome. Be prepared to translate most of the signage if you do not speak German. There is a wheelchair ramp going into the main section of the cathedral and the main cathedral floor is flat but all of the side rooms and passageways have steps and are not handicap accessible.

Very unique cathedral as you enter it on the side and both ends are raised, appearing to have two altar areas. Loved the macabre vibes of one of the arch bishops casket.

⛪ St. Augustine’s Church in Mainz is a beautiful place with a lot of charm. The interior is elegant, with intricate details that make it stand out. 🌿 While it’s not as grand as some other churches in the city, it has a peaceful atmosphere that’s perfect for quiet reflection. Definitely worth a visit if you’re exploring Mainz. 🕊️

The interior of the church is breath-taking, with a calming atmosphere. It is absolutely worth a visit to see the painted ceiling.

I've only been in a few churches more beautiful than this one. The painted ceiling is stunningly beautiful!

An entirety gorgeous church, I was really taken back as I stepped in and took a first look. If you happen to pass by, pop in and you won't be disappointed

I could not go inside, it was closed unfortunately. Otherwise the pictures from few others say that it is a wonderful place. I took a look from outside only. Looks impressive.

My wife and I attended the Christmas organ concert. Fantastic experience as the acoustics were spot on. Lovely selection of music and unexpected additions at the end. This church is very decorative and well worth a visit any time of the year.

Most Beautiful church in Mainz

A very beautiful place, and a great location. It is in the city centre, but still kind of peaceful, a lovely small fontaine and a small park just in front of it. The surrounding buildings are historical and just pretty to watch and enjoy them. The waiters are lovely, nice and with a warm smile on the face all the time, the food I tried is good (see picture) and maybe the best coffee in Mainz (in my opinion). I am new in Mainz, but I would definitely recommend the place. The only thing I really did not like is the Toilette, it was dirty and smelly.

Great location in a beautiful square. The place was very busy and the service was slow, however, the food came out hot and tasty. The drink concoctions were delicious.

The schnitzel is really terrible, burnt and dry as you can see from the photo. It's a very dirty place, there are insects crawling around in the menus they leave on the tables. Moreover, the people working there are very rude and disrespectful. It's a shame that there is such a terrible place in such a beautiful location. disgusting.

The coffee is very delicious and aroma is satisfactory. I tried Cafe Latte with double shots, and was quite tasty.

Nice location + cheap drinks during happy hour but people were quite rude. I understand that during saturday it is quite busy but it is not an excuse that they throw up pur orders on the table like without respect and education.

The ambience is nice and the food is pretty good. However they always seem understaffed and we always have to wait a very long time for the check or to order. They are still very polite tho.

A delicious and very German breakfast!

Arrived 18:01, you close at 18:00 and you closed the door right in front of me… would have been in and out in less than 5 min… beautiful stay in Mainz, but couldn’t get the so much desired souvenir.. great city, not so great tourist store

Excellent professional service and were able to help with every question that I had.

A little difficult to rate as we asked no questions, simply browsed. Was a little challenging to find, but overall a nice place.

Good place to get the local information

Good centre for visitor information and souvenirs. Helpful multilingual staff.

Very nice staff. Small little shop fitting for such a small neat old town.

Great place

I personally disliked most of the art that was displayed, and the video installation was especially unappealing. Other than that I'm not gonna comment too much on the art since art is subjective. However, the art gallery itself is pretty nice and spacious, but not too big and overwhelming. In total we spent about 2 hours in there and we were glad we came on a day where admission was free. The lady at the front was very friendly, everyone else working there wasn't.

always busy but worth the wait

Curious building hosting experiencable arts.

Its an okay place to spend a couple hours if you like hipster esque Establishments

I'll start by saying that I am not an art person, so my opinion is more like an average citizen looking at stuff called art.

Very nice exhibition

(Translated by Google) Great exhibition! 🫧 The large, bright museum rooms were designed so that each work of art could and was allowed to take up space, making the individual pieces seem all the more meaningful and impressive. So, a truly fantastic building that allows space for the works of art to unfold. Particularly well-done and, in my opinion, indispensable is the information booklet – written in simple language – which contains a short text about each work. This created a dialogue between the viewer and the work, encouraging reflection. (Original) Tolle Ausstellung! 🫧 Die großen hellen Museumsräume wurden so gestaltet, dass jedes Kunstwerk Raum einnehmen konnte& durfte, dadurch schienen die einzelnen Stücke um so aussagekräftiger& beeindruckender. Also, wirklich ein tolles Gebäude das Luft zum Atmen lässt, in dem sich die Kunststücke entfalten können. Besonders gelungen und meiner Meinung nach auch unverzichtbar ist das Infoheftchen - in einfacher Sprache - , in dem zu jedem Werk ein kurzer Text stand, so gelang ein Dialog zischen Betrachter*in & Werk, man wurde zum Nachdenken angeregt.

(Translated by Google) Beautifully located church above Stadeck Castle (Original) Schön gelegene Kirche oberhalb der Burg Stadeck

Beautiful, traditional Anglican church service. Enthusiastic and friendly congregation of all ages. Many children, perfect for families. Services and activities are in English. Concerts and other activities are hosted by the church. We are looking forward to "The Messiah" to start our Christmas celebrations with.

Looking for a Spiritual home away from home? St. Augustines is an historic Anglican church with a dynamic and eclectic mixed congregation where we love to welcome every one of whatever background.

Lovely church with a wonderful lady who unlocked it so we could visit. We will be returning for the Christmas service.

English services. Friendly congregation of all ages from 1 month to 80 uears

We were allowed to do our wedding ceremony here and the priest was very helpful in making us feel at home. It was beautiful!

Architectural gem in the centre of Wiesbaden. Fantastic concerts. Active and welcoming community.

Really Christian Atmosphere. The Saturday Coffee Clatsch is Superb.Don't miss it.

I personally like old buildings but was dissappointed on the inside as it was very modern but is still a very beautiful building on the outside.

Beautiful church, tucked into a corner. It's grabs the skyline on Mainz.

The church looks so powerful, it is beautiful.

It is one of the most beautiful old buildings in the city of Mainz and stands out very impressively in this city.

Very pretty from the outside!! It is too bad that it was closed already, wish I could have seen its inside

Nice protestant church which is close to the river and the old town.

I love the place! The calm and serenity of the place is a surreal experience in itself! A must go-to place in Mainz! Exquisite, beautiful and surreal!

Amazing atmosphere and sunday prayer. ❤️

In this place you can breathe the breath of the centuries and enjoy the he made visible the glorious mystery of faith. Art is life, expression of the divine: through which we rise to God and pray to him. The works of art are of man to the Lord and, for this reason, the Christians of Boppard gather here to during the Holy Mass, wedding ceremonies and the Liturgy of the Hours.

(Translated by Google) It is a preserved three-aisled Gothic basilica Roman Catholic church in the old town at Karmeliterplatz 5. Since 1924 it has been used by the Carmelite order. In the period from 1477 to 1797, the University of Mainz held its rector's election here every year. From 1700 to 1713 the monastery was rebuilt in the Baroque style. Today's pilgrimage day is the feast of St. Valentine of Terni on February 14. More important is the second pilgrimage, dedicated to Therese of Lisieux. (Original) Είναι μια διατηρητέα τρίκλιτη γοτθική βασιλική ρωμαιοκαθολική εκκλησία στην παλιά πόλη στην Karmeliterplatz 5 . Από το 1924 έχει χρησιμοποιηθεί από το τάγμα των καρμελιτών. Την περίοδο από το 1477 έως το 1797, το Πανεπιστήμιο του Μάιντς διεξήγαγε εδώ κάθε χρόνο τις πρυτανικές του εκλογές . Από το 1700 έως το 1713 το μοναστήρι ξαναχτίστηκε σε στυλ μπαρόκ. Η σημερινή ημέρα προσκυνήματος είναι η γιορτή του Αγ. Βαλεντίνος του Τέρνι στις 14 Φεβρουαρίου. Πιο σημαντικό είναι το δεύτερο προσκύνημα, αφιερωμένο στην Therese of Lisieux .

(Translated by Google) A place that invites you to meet again and again in a new and deep way with our Lord Jesus Christ. For me an indispensable source of inspiration, a place of grace, a gift!

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately the garden around the church looks very unsightly. It's a shame that none of the monks have time to care for him. (Original) Leider sieht der Garten um die Kirche sehr unschön aus. Schade dass keiner der Mönche Zeit für die Pflege hat.

(Translated by Google) It's nice that you can put things there that other people can still use. Sustainable and very good! (Original) Schön, dass man da Dinge hinstellen kann, die andere Leute noch benutzen können. Nachhaltig und sehr gut!

(Translated by Google) Very nice church. Nice priest. (Original) Sehr schöne Kirche. Netter Pfarrer.

(Translated by Google) A place for organizing a criminal organization. It is an absolute disgrace and disgrace how people in need of help, mostly homeless people, are taken out of their money and then come out in public as a volunteer. You deceive people in poverty into offering lunch and food every second Sunday of the month and in the end you are forced to go to church without this. In addition, I had to watch people being violently and unjustly chased out of this church in order not to have to provide them with lunch. One could assume that volunteering allows for the undermining of adulthood, dear Ulrike Ludy. You could have appeared at the SPD's federal party conference with your screams instead of serving us too little ice cream and holding up a victim out of pity. It's good that some people of a certain age learn to ignore such hate attacks and I give the Sighurt credit for that. I expect my money back for the ice cream that wasn't served as soon as possible. This church is not recommended and highly corrupt! (Original) Ein Ort für die Organisation einer kriminellen Vereinigung. Es ist eine absolute Unverschämtheit und Schande wie man dort hilfebedürftigten Menschen meist Obdachlose das Geld aus der Tasche zieht und dann sich noch in der Öffentlichkeit als Ehrenamtlich outet. Man täuscht Menschen in Armut vor jeden 2.Sonntag im Monat einen Mittagstisch anzubieten und Lebensmitteln zu versorgen und am Ende wird man ohne dies zum Gottesdienst gezwungen. Dazu kommt noch dass ich beobachten musste wie Menschen mit Gewalt zu Unrecht aus dieser Kirche gejagt wurden um ihnen nicht mit einen Mittagessen versorgen zu müssen. Man könnte annehmen Ehrenamtlichkeit erlaubt die Aushebelung des Erwachsensein's, liebe Ulrike Ludy. Mit deinen Geschrei hättest du gut beim Bundesparteitag der SPD auftreten können, statt zu wenig Eis uns zu servieren und einen Opfer aus Mitleid die Stange zu halten. Gut dass manche Menschen im gewissen Alter lernen über solche Hassattacken drüber zu stehen und das rechne ich den Sighurt hoch an. Ich erwarte mein Geld für das nicht servierte Eis schnellstmöglich zurück. Diese Kirche ist nicht empfehlenswert und hochgradig korrupt!

(Translated by Google) Church from the 1950s. Quite nice, a Dominican monastery, in the forecourt of the church there are 2 shelves, one for clothes and one for food (preferably canned goods with ring pull) that is the reason for my visits. I like to donate a few canned goods or clothes to those in need. This all comes straight away. (Original) Kirche aus den 1950igern. Recht schön, dabei ein Dominikanerkloster, im Vorhof der Kirche sind 2 Regale, eines für Kleidung und eines für Essen (am besten Konserven mit Ringpull) das ist der Grund meiner Besuche. Ich spende gerne ein paar Konserven oder auch Kleidung für Bedürftige. Das kommt auch alles direkt an.

Mass in English Sundays at 5pm! On the side chapel, there is a "laughing christ" (looks like he's laughing when you walk up to the cross). Beautiful little church

Father is very kind and open-minded. The church architecture is really beautiful.

Beautiful Catholic Church in Mainz, Germany. Mass in English at 5:00 pm on Sunday.

Nice priest. Decent parking. Experienced a lovely English mass.

The mass in English Sunday night is wonderful.

Mass in English on Sunday at 5:00 p.m.

English Mass @ 1700 Sunday! !

The cathedral is under reconstruction. There were ruins discovered which shows it as a place of worship through many ages.

A beautiful Sky in Mainz

(Translated by Google) It was so nice to be able to go in by chance and see the excavation process. (Original) 우연히 들어갔다가 발굴과정을 볼 수 있어서 너무 좋았습니다.

(Translated by Google) Archaeological excavations are currently taking place in the church, some of which can be visited spontaneously and free of charge. The whole thing is prepared in an exciting way and sometimes the archaeologists themselves are available to answer questions. A sarcophagus and an ax from the Stone Age were even found here. Also antique tiles and columns. As is often the case when construction is taking place in Mainz. (Original) Derzeit finden archäologische Ausgrabungen in der Kirche statt, die man teilweise kostenlos und spontan besichtigen kann. Das Ganze ist spannend aufbereitet und manchmal stehen sogar die Archäologen selbst für Fragen zur Verfügung. Hier wurde sogar ein Sarkopharg und eine Axt aus der Steinzeit gefunden. Außerdem antike Fliesen und Säulen. Wie so oft, wenn in Mainz gebaut wird.

(Translated by Google) The church of San Juan is very close to the cathedral, it was founded in the 7th century. Its predominant style is Carolingian. In 2013, as a result of improvement works for the installation of underfloor heating, a series of archaeological finds were made, which led to the current situation of the church. Liturgical acts continue to take place in the church. (Original) La iglesia de San Juan se encuentra muy próxima a la catedral, fue fundada en el s.VII. Su estilo predominante es carolingio. En 2013 como consecuencia de unas obras de mejora para la instalación de una calefacción por suelo radiante se hicieron una serie de hallazgos arqueológicos, que desembocaron en la situación actual de la iglesia. Los actos litúrgicos siguen teniendo lugar en la iglesia.

(Translated by Google) The building can be freely visited and its history examined both from the outside and from the inside. (Original) Здание можно свободно посетить и рассмотреть его историю как снаружи, так и изнутри.

(Translated by Google) Interesting church – it's older than the cathedral, which was discovered by chance. Archaeologists are still working there, and the various finds can be seen, which of course limits the church's actual function. There are regular cultural events there, which are announced on the website. (Original) Interessante Kirche - sie ist älter als der Dom, was durch Zufall entdeckt wurde - die Archelogen sind dort immer noch tätig und die verschiedenen Funde sind zu sehen, wodurch die Kirche in ihrer eigentlichen Funktion natürlich eingeschränkt ist. Es gibt dort immer wieder kulturelle Veranstaltungen, die auf der Homepage angekündigt werden.
