Zwinger (Münster)

The Zwinger in Münster is a historic site that forms part of the city's old fortifications from the Early Modern Period. It has a dark history, having served as a jail and a Gestapo execution site during the Nazi era, and suffered significant damage from Allied air raids. Today, it is a memorial and part of the Münster City Museum, showcasing the sculpture 'Das gegenläufige Konzert,' making it a poignant destination for tourists and researchers interested in history and art.
