The climate of Mainz (Germany)
Mainz is the largest city in and the capital of the federal state of Rhineland Palatinate. The city is located on the left bank of the Rhine on the spot where the Rhine and the Main flow into each other. Mainz has a beautiful historic center; the most important attraction is the Cathedral. Mainz cathedral is predominantly Romanesque in style. Together with Speyer cathedral and Worms cathedral it is seen as the highlight of Roman architecture. St Stephen’s church is known for its stained glass windows made by the painter Marc Chagall. Other attractions in Mainz include the Theodor-Heuss bridge which dates back to the end of the 19th century. Mainz has a moderate maritime climate influenced by the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Especially the warm Gulf Stream influences the climate. Precipitation figures are highest during the summer. During this period 60-80 millimeters of precipitation can be recorded. During the winter subzero temperatures during the night are not uncommon. During the coldest period of the year precipitation may fall in the form of sleet or snow.

Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
