The 300-year-old Krüsellinde, from Kreuzlinde, stands on the former main street, the old Münsterstrasse. Here was an open court and justice was administered. The replica of the sword on the table next to it is evidence of this.

Under the mighty tree crown of the Krüsellinde, justice was once dispensed in the Middle Ages. The sprawling branches, supported by a historic wooden frame, tell of a far-reaching past and make the history of Münsterland palpable. 📜⚖️
