Old Town
Mellow background music for your stroll around the town
Carillon at the Nonhoff house
The appropriate background music for a visit to Münster is contributed by the festive chiming of the bells. When strolling around the old town, the little “sisters” carillons also set highlights.
Six carillons are distributed throughout the city centre, attracting the attention of passers-by all day long. Be it with revolving figurines, be it the mere chimes - young and old are intrigued by the carillons in Münster.
- Carillon in the Landeshaus, 8 a.m., 1/6/8 p.m. daily, can be heard well from the promenade/corner Mauritzstrasse.
- Carillon in the Residence, 8/12 a.m. and 6 p.m. daily, can be heard well from the palace grounds.
- Carillon in the Townhouse tower, 11 a.m., 3 and 7 p.m. daily, can be heard well in the town-hall yard and the southern portion of the Prinzipalmarkt. Peculiarity: occasional live concerts.
