Mainz-Bingen district, Administrative district in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany

The Mainz-Bingen district spans 605 square kilometers along the Rhine River, encompassing vineyards, agricultural lands, and the Hunsrück mountain slopes.

The district took its current form in 1969 through the merger of Mainz and Bingen districts, following previous territorial changes during Napoleon's occupation and the Congress of Vienna.

The district celebrates numerous wine festivals throughout its municipalities, reflecting the strong viticultural traditions of both the Rhine and Nahe river regions.

The district's administrative center, Ingelheim am Rhein, connects to major German cities through an extensive network of roads and public transportation systems.

The district's coat of arms combines three historical elements: the Imperial eagle, the Wheel of Mainz, and the lion of the Electorate of the Palatinate.
