Old Town Sightseeing Tour
Discover the 10 Must See's of Osnabrück with an Old Town Sighseeing Tour.
1) Town Hall of the Peace of Westphalia
Finished in 1512, the Town Hall in late-gothic style took more than 25 years to build. Just like in neighboring Münster, the Peace of Westphalia was negotiated here, ending the Thirty Years’ War (1618-1648). Inside the hall, 42 portraits show the envoys of the peace congress as well as the rulers of that time.
2) Heger Tor
4) Bucksturm
6) Herrenteichswall
The Herrenteichswall was an element of the fortification and protected against attacks. In May 1909 the newly arranged entrance to the Herrenteichswall with the "Harmannsbrunnen" was inaugurated.
