Remarkable: In Mainz-Kastel there was once one of the largest rafting ports on the Rhine!

The rafters from Kosthheim and Kastel were tough guys. Before they started the long and arduous 500-kilometer journey up the Main and Rhine to Dordrecht in the Netherlands, they wrote their will. Because the rafting profession was life-threatening.

Logging used to have a tradition of almost 500 years in the towns of Mz-Kostheim and Mz-Kastel. So rafting took place at the confluence of the Main and Rhine, as there were no bridges yet. Industrialization at the beginning of the 18th century ended this tradition. The last raft trip was in 1964.
