Museums in South-Western germany - Daumiz - 10-22-2008 Good day, in November I will be going to Mainz to visit central museum, so I am curious if there any other good archaeological or historical museums in the region of south-west of Germany ? I am interesting in everything from stone age to end of viking era. Re: Museums in South-Western germany - jvrjenivs - 10-22-2008 A couple of museums have been discussed here: link from old RAT In the city itself at least are:: * Landesmuseum (sculpture and inscriptions); * Museum für antike Schifffahrt (ships and navigation); * Römisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum (general); * Museum Castellum (bridgehead on the east bank); * Temple of Isis Re: Museums in South-Western germany - Eleatic Guest - 10-27-2008 The Historisches Museum der Pfalz in Speyer, 80 km south from Mainz, has notable collections from antiquity and the migration period. Even more, their Sonderausstellungen (Huns, Vikings, samurai, etc.) are worth a trip. The town, in the midts of which the museum lies, is very beautiful, too (it features the largest standing Romanesque cathedral of the world). Re: Museums in South-Western germany - Simplex - 10-29-2008 ....and don't forget the Museum im Andreasstift at Worms, Museum der Stadt Worms im Andreasstift Weckerlingplatz 7 67547 Worms Smaller but nevertheless interesting. Custos Dr. Mathilde Grünewald gained some merits from her publications on graves of the larger Worms area.
