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 story 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.
