The city
The state capital Mainz runs 59 daycare centers and is one of the largest employers in this sector in the Rhine-Main region. As a business location and city of science, Mainz is one of the most dynamic regions in Germany.
At the same time, Mainz remains personal and manageable: the proximity of work, study, and home is easy to achieve thanks to a well-developed rail and road network.
Live Mainz!
But the state capital of Rhineland-Palatinate not only offers excellent career prospects, it also provides ideal conditions for private life: nestled in the lively Rhine-Main area and the charming Rhine-Hesse countryside, the city is also an ideal starting point for tours and excursions. But you don't actually have to go that far: the "bustling life" begins right on your doorstep in this charming wine metropolis: in cosmopolitan, lively Mainz, people enjoy themselves and celebrate all year round. Mainz
also has a lot to offer culturally. The young scene in particular is thriving here with clubs, Rhine beaches, film festivals, and a wide range of nightlife and shopping opportunities.
