Facts and practical information

Mainz-Kostheim is a district administered by the city of Wiesbaden, Germany. Its population is 14,381. Mainz-Kostheim was formerly a district of the city of Mainz, until the public administration by the city of Wiesbaden was decided on 10 August 1945.

Mainz-Kostheim faces the city of Mainz on the opposite shore of the Rhine river. ()
