St. Quintin - On the foundations of a Gothic hall church

The church of St. Quintin in Mainz was first mentioned in 774. The building was constructed between 1288 and 1330.

In 1994, St. Quintin was once again given a wooden spire. This meant that the last church in Mainz had been restored to its pre-war condition.  Destroyed several times, a Gothic hall church with a square floor plan has been preserved. In addition to the high altar from 1739 with a new canopy, the large altarpiece by Franz Anton Maulbertsch (1724-1796) is remarkable. Another highlight is the restored pulpit, which originally came from St. Emmeran.
