Guided Story
Imagine standing in a place where history whispers through the walls. These stones of the Reduit were once part of the strategic Fortress of Mainz, fortified to guard the land. Look up and see the thick walls that have stood the test of time, protecting secrets of soldiers who once roamed these grounds. Behind you, just across the river, is the Museum Castellum, where you can explore the area's Roman history. To the south, you'll notice the Bastion von Schönborn, another relic of defense from a bygone era. Can you feel the blend of past and present here? These walls have witnessed so much. Listen closely, and you might just hear the echoes of history.
