Annual Meeting of the German Friends of LSE in Mainz, 5th to 6th November 2016
Dear Alumnae, dear Alumni, dear Friends,
Mainz the state capital of Rhineland-Palatinate combines an ancient culture with joie de
vivre. It is the home of the German Wine Institute and is the wine capital of Germany; outside
the city is the largest German wine-growing area, Rheinhessen, with a number of awardwinning vintners.
Mainz has been many things to many people: The Roman Castrum Moguntiacum – capital of
the Electorate of Mainz at the time of the Holy Roman Empire, the Jewish Magenza, the
residence and capital of the Prince Electors, an archbishopric, a university town and a
fortress town of the German Nation´s Holy Roman Empire as well as the Mainz Republic.
These are all epochs of “Golden Mainz” as the city has been known since its heyday in the
Middle Ages. The city is also famous for the invention of the movable-type printing press and
the first books printed by Johannes Gutenberg, Marc Chagall’s sparkling blue stained glass
windows in St. Stephan’s Church and the Carnival which marks out the fifths season the
highlight of which is a kilometre-long procession through the streets of the city.
We cordially invite you to our annual meeting. The tentative programme is as follows:
