  The Chagall windows are stunning, and the new organ is gorgeous. I went twice, once in the morning to enjoy the windows, and saw an ad for an organ conert on Sunday night. I returned for the concert and had the pleasure of watching the light fade from those lovely windows while listening to great music.

  This is a beautiful church with stunning windows and charming presence. There are lots of churches in Europe but this one is definitely worth a visit.

  You should consider visiting this church on a sunny day, sun shining through the colourful Chagall painted windows gives a breathtaking view!

  The Chagall windows are well worth the visit. Different than any church windows you will see in Europe. Be sure to sit for awhile and watch the light change. A short walk from the center square in the older section of Mainz.

  Amazing Marc Chagall windows. Make sure to bring a pair of binoculars so you can really enjoy the detail.

  The Chagall windows are really fabulous and the building itself with its cloisters is very interesting as well. Besides, the surrounding area is nice to walk around offering beautiful views .over the city

  会想来这间教堂真的是因为教堂里的彩绘玻璃是夏卡尔的真迹....虽然它不是美因兹城里最大最有名的教堂 可是我就是喜欢它的小而美 一走进教堂里就看到属于夏卡尔的蓝.....静静坐着看到窗外的阳光透过彩绘玻璃所折射出来的蓝光洒在整间教堂里~仿佛夏卡尔笔下的小天使正嬉戏在教堂的屋顶上.....

  Another beautiful church building to look at while in the midst of some outstanding architecture wherever you look. Europe is just full of these types of buildings. It just makes you think of how they can be designed and built so many years ago without the technology we have today. Well worth the stop if this is the type of architecture that interests you.

  I had read about the Chagall windows in this church and wanted to see them. The church is open from 10 am to 5 pm. I happened to go one weekday morning about 10:30 and the organist was practicing, so that was the highlight.There was a lot of information in the church, but it was all in German, so I couldn't even tell which windows were the Chagall ones. I ended up buying a book in English for 4 euros that told me about the windows. The Chagall windows are 5 in number and are at the very front of the church. overlooking the altar. They depict various scenes from the Bible and contain a brilliant blue color.The other windows in the church (on the sides and back) are complementary but were not done by Chagall.

  We popped in during our free time at the Mainz Old Town. It's a nice high ceiling church, plain ceiling but with paintings on the walls and Chagall stained glass windows, and a nice long aisle.
