If you in mainz , don't miss this gem ! It located just right beside the cinestar. Entrance is free. Do try their shipwreck virtual reality. It's really fun and help you understand how the romans carry their wine or olive oil and stack them in the ships. The museum are highly accessible.It is very spacious and they also have braille on their exhibit label. Unfortunately, they have very limited english label on the display.

Very nice museum and no charges at all. You can of course buy a souvenir or a book and make a donation if you want. Place has a lot of exhibits and also accessible for blind people and lots of interactive things for kids. If you have some time, definitely worth checking out. 👍

Cool museum about shipbuilding during Roman times, and the importance of the rivers in the area, especially the Rhine. The museum is free Thursday-Sunday. Most of the exhibits are in German only. They also have lots of activities for young kids.

Free, interesting and modern. There are a few original pieces of ancient roman ships, life-size and miniature models made from wood or 3D-printed and digital media ranging from VR (before COVID) to smartphone guides.

ACHTUNG: Museum schließt ab 1. Juli 2022 für ca. 1 JAHR Leider nur 5 Sterne möglich - sonst würde ich auch ohne Zögern 6 oder 7 vergeben Eine ebenso eindrückliche wie eingängige Darstellung der antiken Schifffahrt von ihren Anfängen bis in die Römerzeit, die naturgemäß den Schwerpunkt der Ausstellung bildet. Die Austellungsobjekte und erklärenden Schautafeln gruppieren sich kreisförmig um die 4 in Mainz entdeckten antiken Römerschiffe, die hier der Öffentlichkeit gezeigt werden, wobei originalgetreue Nachbauten sowie die tatsächlich geborgenen Wracks zu besichtigen sind. Der Eintritt ist kostenlos. Parken kann man ggü im Parkhaus vom Kino.
