Accessibility
Everyone has a right to inclusive coexistence. Accessibility is therefore an important issue for the RMCC.
Inclusion in social life requires access without barriers and obstacles for all people - with or without disabilities. The planners of the RheinMain CongressCenter (RMCC) have set themselves the goal of implementing this basic right in a service and comfort-oriented manner. This means that not only the guests and visitors benefit from these barrier-free offers, but also the organizers.
"Travel for all" at the RMCC
In summer 2021, the RheinMain CongressCenter was certified according to the criteria of the nationwide labeling system for barrier-free travel offers "Travel for All".
The relevant data on accessibility on site was recorded by an independent surveyor and evaluated by the certification body in Berlin. We are pleased to carry the "Accessibility tested" certificate until 2027.

New blind-touch city model at the RMCC
The new blind touch model at the RheinMain CongressCenter complements the existing models in Wiesbaden's city center. It was donated by 13 Lions Clubs, three Leo Clubs and the Hessian Lions District and represents an important contribution to accessibility.
Made of gold bronze by artist Felix Brörken, the 1:650 scale model depicts the area between Friedrichstraße, Frankfurter/Mainzer Straße and Oranienstraße as far as the main railway station. The approximately 181 x 123 cm city map rests on a 75 cm high concrete base, which harmonizes with the material of the RMCC surroundings and was designed to be wheelchair accessible.
The model follows on from the two existing blind-touch models in Wiesbaden, which depict the "Historic Pentagon" and the Kurhaus ensemble. The result is an extended, inclusive city map for everyone.
