Attached to the Cathedral Square is located on the back of the cathedral Münster platform, also called Pfalz. This is located on a rocky outcrop directly high above the Rhine and is a well-known lookout point over the Rhine, the Basel Rhine bridges and Kleinbasel and the surrounding countryside. In the boundary wall a continuous seat is integrated. From the Pfalz, a staircase leads down to the Münster ferry.

Four pedestrian ferries connect Greater Basel with Lesser Basel. These are roll-on ferries (a special type of cable ferry) that use the current of the Rhine for propulsion. Today, they are an integral part of Basel's cityscape.
