Münster

Münster has served as an episcopal seat in Westphalia since the ninth century. The Aa runs through the city, while the tree-lined Promenade traces the line of former medieval fortifications around the centre. Prinzipalmarkt, with its gabled merchant houses and arcades, leads to the Gothic Town Hall; its Friedenssaal hosted negotiations that helped produce the Peace of Westphalia in 1648. Münster is also closely associated with cycling, and its compact core links churches, squares and university quarters.
