Good day, in November I will be going to Mainz to visit central museum, so I am curious if there any other good archaeological or historical museums in the region of south-west of Germany ? I am interesting in everything from stone age to end of viking era.

The Historisches Museum der Pfalz in Speyer, 80 km south from Mainz, has notable collections from antiquity and the migration period. Even more, their Sonderausstellungen (Huns, Vikings, samurai, etc.) are worth a trip. The town, in the midts of which the museum lies, is very beautiful, too (it features the largest standing Romanesque cathedral of the world).
