Overview

In our guided tour of the old town of Münster, we dedicate ourselves to the emergence of Münster on the Horsteberg at St. Paul's Cathedral. The astronomical clock from 1542 is a masterpiece of modern science and blacksmithing. Here we explain how you can read the position of the stars on this work of art and how the naming of our days of the week is related to the planets.

In view of the tower of the Lamberti Church we encounter the famous iron cages. Hear the storey of the Anabaptists who met a haunted end in these cages in the 16th century.

In addition, you will learn about the eventful negotiations on the Peace of Westphalia at the town hall, about the disputes between the Munster merchants and the powerful prince-bishops on the Prinzipalmarkt and, opposite the Church of Our Lady, why the Anabaptists cut down their tower to station cannons on it.

Activity itinerary

Lambertikirche
  • 5m
  • Admission ticket not included
Anyone who embarks on a leisurely city tour through Münster's picturesque old town will immediately notice the imposing appearance of the Lamberti Church in Münster, whose neo-Gothic tower towers over the city centre and is also an ideal orientation point from afar. However, it is also worth taking a close look at the Lamberti Church. The attentive visitor will notice a multitude of special features. The Lamberti Church in Münster looks back on a long and traditional history as a market church...
Historisches Rathaus Munster
  • 5m
  • Admission ticket not included
The historic town hall of Münster is one of the very special eye-catchers of the Prinzipalmarkt and is one of the city's landmarks. It is known far beyond the city limits in particular for its so-called Peace Hall. Once the building's council chamber, the hall got its name as a result of the peace negotiations held in Munster, which were successfully concluded in 1648 and ended the devastating Thirty Years' War. The peace agreement is of great historical importance for another reason...
Prinzipalmarkt
  • 5m
The Prinzipalmarkt with its restored gabled houses is by far the most magnificent street in the city centre of Münster. Here you will find shops and stores from a wide variety of areas. Bakeries, delicatessens and clothing stores, which have in common that they carry rather high-priced items. In the middle of the Prinzipalmarkt, right next to the town hall, there is also one of the most traditional and beautiful restaurants in Münster: the Stuhlmacher restaurant, where guests have been spoiled with excellent Westphalian food for over a hundred years. A tip for visiting the city centre of Münster: Visit the Prinzipalmarkt in the evening hours and enjoy the magical atmosphere when the beautifully illuminated gabled houses and the Lamberti Church stand out against the dark night sky!
St.-Paulus-Dom
  • 5m
In our guided tour of the old town of Münster, we dedicate ourselves to the emergence of Münster on the Horsteberg at St. Paul's Cathedral.
