Aaseepiraten set sail

For six weeks - the individual courses run for one week each - the young sailors have the Aasee firmly in their hands. Often all our boats are out and about, manned by crews organised according to age and ability. There has never been a shortage of fun when learning to sail. This is certainly one reason why some holiday weeks are always fully booked early. Incidentally, there are only two requirements for these holiday sailing courses: The children must be 6 years old and be able to swim. However, life jackets, which we provide free of charge, must be worn. Because safety comes first with us.

The sailing week always starts on Mondays and ends on Fridays. We sail daily between 10:00 and 16:00. The hungry young captains bring a packed lunch for the lunch break.

The following courses are available:

Junior courses (from 6-9 years)

We divide the junior courses into levels A, B and C. The Junior A course is for the youngest sailing beginners from the age of 6, who are given a very gentle introduction to sailing. In the Junior B course, the skills are repeated and refined. The Junior C course gives girls and boys an introduction to regatta sailing. At the age of 9, the Junior Basic course is the best place to start. You will be sailing in small teams of 3 or 4 on our stable Rügen dinghies.

Junior A: For beginners aged 6-8

Junior B: for children who have already done Junior A

Junior C: for children who have already completed Junior B

Junior basic course: for children aged 9 and over

Basic courses (from 10 years)

We divide the basic courses into levels A, B and C. Basic course A is for all sailing beginners between the ages of 10 and 15. The basic course B is characterised by repetition and refinement of sailing skills, where trapeze sailing is also possible. In basic course C, trapeze sailing is always used, some new sailing manoeuvres are added and the theory is expanded.

Basic course A: for all beginners aged 10 and over who would like to learn to sail

Basic course B: for anyone aged 10 and over with previous sailing experience

Basic course C: for all those who have already completed basic course B

Advanced course (from 12 years)

For all those aged 12 and over with good sailing experience who are sporty and have completed the basic B and C courses. Spinnaker and trapeze sailing round off this expert course.

Planing dinghy course (from 10 years)

For children aged 10 and over who want to sail fast and have sound previous knowledge (e.g. two sailing courses). Sailing is on the RS Feva or RS Venture, for advanced sailors also on the gennaker - wet feet are guaranteed.

This lantern-lit tour takes you past historic town houses, through dark alleyways to mysterious walls behind which strange things are said to have happened! The night watchman has been ensuring safety and order since the Middle Ages - experience first-hand what life was like back then and step into the cathedral of your past. Explore the city at night with the night watchman, illuminated only by lanterns and candlelight. A tour that brings history to life! Accompany the night watchman on his exciting patrol through the old town of Münster and immerse yourself in a bygone era - exciting, entertaining and with a special atmosphere.

By lantern light, accompany the guardian of the citizens' weal and woe through the dark streets of the old town. Hear about his daily work and the hustle and bustle between the cathedral castle and the city walls: about rich merchants and dirty alleyways, about the bustling market and episcopal power, about Gruet beer and secular jurisdiction - and last but not least about his "colleague", the tower keeper.

And when his horn sounds at the end of the tour, you will not only be privy to the "historical misdemeanours" of the tower keeper, but also a good piece of the long-gone history of the old Hanseatic city of Münster.

Meeting point: Town Hall courtyard, Chillida benches
Duration: 1.5 hours

No pre-booking necessary.

Münster crime city tour:

Ever since Wilsberg, Boerne and Thiel started investigating, there have been murders in Münster - and not too few! The otherwise tranquil cathedral city has established itself nationwide as a crime city - fortunately more on the screen. However, Münster also has its fair share of scandalous murders and many a bizarre crime.

This tour opens up secret files, traces legendary cases and takes you to the original film locations. On the one hand, we show how Münster developed into a popular TV city - murderously good and criminally exciting! But we also show the historical significance of these locations and how they are currently used.

Meeting point: City Library, Alter Steinweg
Duration: 1.5 hours
