The very location of the museum is in itself a part of its attraction. As its name implies, the Dom- und Diözesanmuseum (lit. Cathedral and Diocesan Museum) is situated in the cloister of the imposing Mainz Cathedral.
It is therefore not surprising to see that the extraordinary collection exhibited is comprised of works of art accrued over two millenniums in the cathedral treasury.
The arched halls, typical of their Middle Age origins, provide the ideal setting for these masterpieces. Favourite attractions for many visitors such as the majestic "Madonna aus der Fuststraße", the creations of German goldsmiths, and illuminated books all give this museum the good reputation it enjoys around the world.
