Mainz Audio Tour: Fortresses, Pharma, and Ancient Stones of Oberstadt

Audio guide8 stops

Beneath the quiet streets of Mainz-Oberstadt, ancient stones guard tales of revolt, royal schemes, and shadowy betrayals. This is not just a city of churches and cobbles—its very foundations pulse with secrets waiting to be discovered. On this self-guided audio tour, wander from the imposing Mainz Fortress to the echoing depths of the Railway Tunnel and the weathered Drusus Stone. Uncover the hidden stories and overlooked corners that slip by most who pass through. Why did a daring act within the fortress trigger citywide chaos? What clandestine meetings echoed through the dark, damp railway tunnels after midnight? And what strange ritual is forever etched into the scars of the Drusus Stone? Stride through time as history rises from the stones beneath your feet. Each step reveals struggles, whispers of power, and the thrill of the unknown. Unlock the buried drama of Mainz—press play and let the story unfold.
