“Stadt-Lupe Münster“
The association "Stadt-Lupe" organises guided tours for individuals, groups and so-called "intensive tours". The two-hour tour of the Old Town (daily from 11 am, advance registration recommended) is a good way to get to know the historic side of Münster. This tour is also offered in English every Saturday at 11 am from May to October. Alternative tour times or tours in other languages can be arranged on an individual basis. A simple telephone call will suffice, and online reservations are also possible. A selection of themed tours, ranging from the city's history to present day life in Münster, is also on offer.
