There is a lot to experience in M\u00fcnster and the “m\u00fcnstercard” offers visitors some advantages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

In partnership with M\u00fcnster Tourismus Marketing, the Stadtwerke have developed the tourist card m\u00fcnstercard. It can be purchased, for example, in some hotels, in the Stadtwerke CityShop, the information desk in the historic city hall, M\u00fcnster Information and online. It is also possible to download a free app. There you can then buy the m\u00fcnstercard and manage it online. The app provides the user with additional information such as opening hours and location of the offer, as well as information about bus transport in M\u00fcnster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What benefits does the m\u00fcnstercard offer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As with any city map, it pays to plan your own activities carefully before buying. Are my preferred destinations included in the offer? What will it cost me without the card and what will I save with the card? We have tested some of the card’s offers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mobile in M\u00fcnster<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For us always one of the most interesting and most used advantage is the free use of buses and trains. In the entire city of M\u00fcnster, you can travel for free with the m\u00fcnstercard. It saved us, for example, the walk to the train station (with the luggage).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you prefer to use a bicycle in M\u00fcnster, you can rent one free of charge at the bike station at the main train station (while supplies last). For M\u00fcnster, the bicycle is one of the most important and fastest means of transportation. In our article “With the bike criss-cross through M\u00fcnster” you can learn more about the bicycle city M\u00fcnster.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Another way to be mobile in M\u00fcnster is to take the M\u00fcnsterbus. The day ticket for the M\u00fcnsterbus is free of charge if you show your m\u00fcnstercard. Every day, at least every hour, the red bus travels a route with 12 stops in the city. You can get on and off everywhere and also listen to a guided tour of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or how about a trip across the Aasee? The solar ship SOLAARIS takes visitors to M\u00fcnster across the lake here from around March (weather permitting) until October. With the m\u00fcnstercard, you can take a round trip on the SOOLARIS for free. We have tested the offer and report about it in our article “Local recreation in M\u00fcnster – on the way at the Aasee”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Culture in M\u00fcnster<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the m\u00fcnstercard also offers the opportunity to visit some interesting cultural institutions in the city. We visited some of them during our stays in M\u00fcnster and have reported on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have already visited the LWL Museum of Art and Culture twice. Once our visit was on the theme of peace and we visited the special exhibition on the topic and of course also the permanent exhibition. On our second visit, there was another special exhibition on the theme of Bauhaus to discover. We were thrilled each time. With the m\u00fcnstercard, you can visit the permanent exhibition at the LWL Museum of Art and Culture free of charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"LWL-Museum<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The art museum Pablo Picasso M\u00fcnster can also be visited free of charge with the offer of the card. We took part in a great guided tour during our visit to M\u00fcnster on the theme of peace and discovered the works of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, one of the most impressive visits to M\u00fcnster was to the Peace Hall in the Historic City Hall. With the m\u00fcnstercard you get free admission to the Friedenssaal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Richtertisch<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The beautiful open-air museum M\u00fchlenhof can also be visited free of charge. With initially still cloudy weather, but that then improved from minute to minute, we have explored the historic buildings and had a lot of fun. In our article “Visit to the open-air museum M\u00fchlenhof in M\u00fcnster” you can read more about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Torhaus<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Further offers, which are free of charge possible is the visit of the museum for lacquer art, the Westphalian art association and the LWL museum for natural history. The Allwetterzoo M\u00fcnster can be discovered with a 50% reduction of the entrance fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Free city tours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The m\u00fcnstercard also offers its user the opportunity to take part in city tours free of charge. You can find three providers at once:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
