Mainz Tattoo Studios
Mainz, the Rhineland city where Gutenberg revolutionised printing, has a compact but quality-driven tattoo scene that befits its cultural heritage. Studios in the Altstadt and Neustadt serve a loyal local clientele as well as visitors crossing the Rhine from Wiesbaden just minutes away.
Most of Mainz's tattoo studios are found in the Altstadt along streets like Zanggasse and in the adjacent Neustadt. The proximity to Wiesbaden across the Rhine means clients from both cities regularly cross over to visit their preferred studio.
