Friends of Gutenberg in the Gutenberg Foundation

Purpose of the association

Mainz is home to the Gutenberg Museum, the "World Museum of Printing." It is one of the oldest and most important museums for the history of books, printing, and writing worldwide. Despite renovations and expansions over the years, the building is now showing its age and requires fundamental modernization based on the content and structural concept developed by the museum team.

It is set to become one of the most modern and exciting places to experience the history of printing. Right in the heart of Mainz, the media city, whose most precious book treasures are kept here.

That's what we're working towards!
