Mainvorland

Just like all big cities Rüsselsheim is also located near a significant river: the Main. The longest most westerly subsidiary stream of the Rhine river has always been important for the city and still gives it its very special charm. Especially during the summer the riverside is a venue for athletes and for those who look for rest and peace. After work or during a lunch break many people come here to take a break from daily life and enjoy the almost-maritime atmosphere. The riverside of the Main is also a venue for various major events every year such a the Mainfest with its marathon, the Klassikertreffen, the Mainland Games and the Rüsselsheim fair.
