What are the official mirrors of the Maven Central Repository?

This is taken from @rvxnet’s answer and an example of why link-only answer are not desirable. I’ve taken this from the 2015-05-20 WaybackMachine version of their link:

Official, but not browseable:

  • https://repo1.maven.org/maven2

Others:

  • https://maven.antelink.com/content/repositories/central/

Also, there are official instructions for configuring to use mirrors. Essentially, you add to you settings.xml the something like the following:

<mirrors>
    <mirror>
        <id>planetmirror.com</id>
        <name>PlanetMirror Australia</name>
        <url>http://downloads.planetmirror.com/pub/maven2</url>
        <mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
    </mirror>
</mirrors>
