This tour combines the remains of the largest Roman theatre north of the Alps, the oldest Roman monument in Germany and possibly one of the most atmospheric museums in Germany, the Sanctuary of Isis and Magna Mater. Together these three highlights will give you a good understanding of the life and times of the Romans nearly two thousand years ago.
Zitadellenweg 1, Mainz, Germany
Just a short walk away are the remains of the largest Roman theatre north on the Alps with a capacity of about 10,000 people. Here not only comedies and tragedies were staged but also politicians met annually to wheel and deal.

Located under a shopping mall in the city centre is the well-preserved Sanctuary of the Roman Temple of Isis and Magna Mater.

Follow the see-through trail above the excavations and marvel at the well-displayed and diverse objects discovered at the site such as the spellbinding curse tablets.
Unless otherwise arranged, the meeting point is outside Museum of Ancient Seafaring (Neutorstraße 2b).
