Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Als Festung Mainz werden eine Reihe von Festungswerken in der Zeit von 1619 bis 1918 um die Garnisonsstadt Mainz bezeichnet.

Noch heute sind viele Festungswerke und Kasernen in Mainz erhalten. Zahlreiche Straßennamen verweisen auf die Vergangenheit als Festungsstadt. Die Mainzer Zitadelle, der wichtigste Überrest der Festungszeit, gilt als eines der bedeutenden historischen Bauwerke in Mainz.

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Fortress of Mainz was a fortressed garrison town between 1620 and 1918. At the end of the Napoleonic Wars, under the term of the 1815 Peace of Paris, the control of Mainz passed to the German Confederation and became part of a chain of strategic fortresses which protected the Confederation. With the dissolution of the Confederation and the Austro-Prussian War, control of the fortress first passed to Prussia, and, after the 1871 Unification of Germany, to the German Empire.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Mayence fut, de 1619 à 1918, une forteresse et une ville de garnison. La présence des militaires et les fortifications étendues ont fortement marqué la vie des citoyens mayençais. En raison de sa position stratégiquement favorable, Mayence a joué un grand rôle dans le passé : d'un côté à l'autre de la frontière, on l'appelait le boulevard de la France ou das Bollwerk Deutschlands.

Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)

La fortezza di Magonza (in tedesco: Festung Mainz) è un insieme di fortificazioni della città di Magonza, in Germania, in gran parte smantellata dopo la prima guerra mondiale. Alla fine delle Guerre napoleoniche, sulla base dei termini della Pace di Parigi del 1815, il controllo di Magonza passò alla Confederazione Germanica e divenne parte di quella catena strategica di fortezze poste al confine con la Francia per proteggere la Confederazione. Con la dissoluzione della Confederazione e la Guerra austro-prussiana, il controllo della fortezza passò dapprima alla Prussia e poi, dall'unificazione della Germania nel 1871, all'Impero tedesco.
