Münster is well worth seeing: Liebfrauen- or Überwasserkirche
The Lord's house beyond the Aa river
Liebfrauen- or Überwasserkirche
The name of the church results from its then location outside of the city walls, beyond the Aa river (= across the waters of the Aa). Created by 1340, the lofty, bright hall church features the mightiest gothic church spire throughout Westphalia, which was bereft of its roof by a hurricane in 1704, though. The splendid sculptures of the figure portal that was destroyed by the Baptists has been excavated in the Kreuzschanze and is now on display in the Westphalian State Museum.
