The Mainz Monument Network has now been active for more than six years, working to advance the urgently needed renovation of the Electoral Palace. It is a race against time to preserve valuable original features. At the same time, the exterior of the palace is being restored to its former glory, for example with the installation of new wooden windows. Public funds are not sufficient. Fire safety requirements have currently led to the addition of a temporary emergency staircase on the narrow side of the Diether von Isenburg wing.

Since the start of the building block campaign, which has been actively supported by the media, more than €500,000 in private donations have been received in the Denkmal! Netzwerk account. This is a result that fills chairwoman Erika Friderichs and her colleagues with pride and confidence.

The courtyard side of the Diether von Isenburg wing is now complete. Thanks to the high level of donations, the renovation of four further building axes in Diether von Isenburg-Straße can now be tackled. Preparatory work in the stonemason's workshops has already begun. The installation of the restored and, in some cases, newly constructed building sections will start when spring temperatures arrive.

Further funds are needed in view of the large size of the building. The commitment of Mainz citizens, companies, and institutions continues to be urgently needed. Benefit events are therefore being planned again in the course of the year. Information on donation options can be found on this website under Electoral Palace.
