Events in the Münsterland

Nowhere in Germany are there more Little Owls than in NRW. About three quarters of these cute owls breed in our federal state - a large proportion of them in Münsterland.

The exhibition explains why this is so and why we as humans must work to keep it that way, both with texts for adults and with illustrations from the children's book "The Little Owl Family" by Anne Möller.

The 90 m² exhibition also presents the four other native owl species.

The climate has an impact on the earth and on us humans, and this is precisely what the special exhibition at the LWL Museum of Natural History is about. Guests are taken on a journey through the past, present and future on 1,000 square metres and can become active climate researchers themselves. The exhibition appeals to all the senses and offers interesting facts for young and old.

Wilhelm Imkamp (1906-1990) studied at the Bauhaus in Dessau from 1926-1929, among others with Feininger, Kandinsky and Klee. During a study stay in Paris, Imkamp developed his own abstract language.

The exhibition shows works from the 1920s to the 1980s from public collections and the Imkamp family archive.

After last year's great success, we are again enriching the cabin with a wonderful fresh-air leisure activity this winter. Curling is a great team game with tradition and very much in demand in the winter time. From 4.11.22 to 26.2.23 we will again be launching our curling rink (artificial ice) with a view of the lake - the ideal fun for small groups, Advent and Christmas parties, schools, clubs, children and much more.

The game:

In curling, the players try to shoot their curling stick as close as possible to the "stave" - the one who places his stick best wins! Curling is very similar to curling, but it is a sport in its own right. The 3.2 kg ice sticks are easy for everyone to handle - appropriately smaller ice sticks are available for children.

Of course, there is also the opportunity to stop off in the cabin or galley for a cosy meal before or after the game.

The terraces of the cabin & galley are enclosed and heated with transparent weather protection tarpaulins. You can therefore have a good time both indoors and on the heated terraces in a cosy atmosphere - also ideal for Christmas parties.

For seat reservations or buffet bookings, please contact us by telephone on 02364/9529421 (from 12 noon) or eisstockbahn@rossini-haltern.de.

Bookings for the curling rink are only possible online. Short-term bookings on the same day with free rinks are possible on site.

When Matthias Kunkler, born in Borken, died in 1997 at the age of 40, he left behind an extensive oeuvre.

His estate comprises almost several hundred works, some of them large-format, and and still uncounted smaller works from a good 15 years of intensive creative period. The estate, which has yet to be catalogued, is located in Düsseldorf. has yet to be indexed, is located in Düsseldorf.

This exhibition in his native city contributes to the public appreciation and rediscovery of the artist. this exhibition in Borken, the town of his birth. It is the first retrospective ever dedicated to him and an attempt, his works 25 years after his death and to place them in the context of his time. in the context of his time.

With this exhibition, we are rediscovering an unknown artist, paying tribute to an unfinished artistic biography. an unfinished artistic biography and bring wonderful works of art works of art out of oblivion.

No other place stands in the public memory for the genocide of European Jews as much as the concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz in southern Poland. But have you heard of places like Józefów, Majdanek or Zamość? These are also crime scenes of the Holocaust. They are places where ordinary German policemen became murderers. However, these crime complexes are insufficiently anchored in the German culture of remembrance. The Gallery Walk therefore traces the crimes of order police officers. It can be seen around the clock at the Villa ten Hompel fence from 29 January to 11 May.

A market is held every Thursday on Idenbrockplatz in Münster's Kinderhaus district. The market vendors are happy to offer local and regional products and are happy to help with any questions.
