It's a fantastic city, we were back in the run-up to Christmas - you might want to check out that video too - th-cam.com/video/JkPMmlMsz3k/w-d-xo.html 🤞 Hoping you're successful, and you never know you might bump into us when we return 😀
Mathias, I am so glad you enjoyed it. We have had two wonderful visits to Münster, and who knows we may be back again. This year we will be heading to Trier, Koblenz & Cologne and are so looking forward to it. Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a comment. All the best, Gary & Janis
🙏 Thanks so much - That clock is something special, although I did have to cut it down because it carries on for quite a while. The food shots were thanks to your feedback on our Folkestone post a few months back - Thanks again - take care stay safe, stay well. 😍
Recently been here and its quite a nice city. One can not help but wonder though about what it must have looked like before WWII. Almost nothing from before remains. Its a tragic story really. Ive read that the Bishop was not the greatest fan of the Nazi's. The party "rewarded" him by locating 3 full army divisions and a military HQ to the city. This of course put it firmly on to the map of the Allied bombers later in the war, leaving about 95% of the city destroyed when the hostilities were concluded. Although they did their best to recreate a lot of it, and from a distance it does look quite convincing, im sorry to say that its obviously nothing like the real thing must have been. Still a very pleasant place with lots of things that did survive, including of course things like the culture and kitchen!
Sander, agree with you, the war changed everything, and when you see the destruction after the war, it's truly horrific. You've got me thinking now, because obviously Prinzipalmarkt has been rebuilt in a traditional style, but behind the Rathaus you have the much more modern, post-war reconstruction. Without the war, what would it have looked like? I have to say we love Münster, fond memories of warm welcomes and friendly smiles. It's a unique place in Germany; it's a bike capital, a place where the car is not king. Glad you enjoyed our little video; thanks for taking the time to comment. Regards, Gary & Janis
@@OurWorldForYou Well thank you for making it, it was nice to watch and refelct on my own visit. And any place where you can get a fresh and hot schnitzel sandwich for a couple of euro's in a local supermarket gets a thumbs up in my book!
Sander, Now that sounds fabulous. Have you been during the Christmas Markets? They were superb, I do have a video on it, but I'm not sure about the audio, so it may get a '22 remix to correct that. We have has some great nights too with a bite at Altes Gasthaus Leve and the Gaststätte Pinkus Müller (okay, the beer may have led me here!) That why I love travel, memories, and Münster has created some great ones. Cheers, Gary & Janis
