Hechtsheim is a borough of the Rhineland-Palatinate state capital Mainz, Germany. With an area of 1,404 hectares, it is the largest district in the city.

== History == On 17 May 808, Hehhidesheim was first mentioned in writing by the Princely Abbey of Fulda. However, like other "-heim" places in Rheinhessen, it was probably founded much earlier.
