Munster
Townhall

The Town Hall was built in 1550 and its Renaissance façade is classified as a historical monument. Above the door, the town's coat of arms evokes an abbey church, reminding us that Munster, whose name comes from the Latin "monasterium", owes its existence to the Benedictine abbey of Saint Gregory. The double-headed eagle in the middle of the upper floors triangle, is the symbol of the Holy Roman Empire of which Munster was once a part.
