Tips

February 14, 2026

The moat in Münster encircles the Prince-Bishop's Palace. Its banks serve many as a pleasant walking path: a stroll around the palace, a brief escape from the hustle and bustle, without actually leaving the city center. Historically, the site predates the Baroque palace. The citadel "Paulsburg" once stood here. When the palace was built from 1767 onwards according to plans by Johann Conrad Schlaun, the waterway was preserved.
