Properties:
The origins of the Basilica of St. Ludgerus date back to around 800, when the Frisian missionary and later first Bishop of Münster, Liudger, founded a Benedictine monastery here. The abbey church was built in its present form in 1256. As one of the last monuments of Romanesque architecture in the Rhineland, the cruciform, three-aisled gallery basilica is also a historical document.
