Germany travel Osnabruck and Munster - the city of peace, city university

Most miserable moment in the long history of Germany is a World War II. However, it is also possible to view more dire moments 30 Years' War from World War II, depending on the viewpoint. In World War II, there is also a excuse determination of unavoidable due to fight the forces of European powers of the time at least, but excuse himself race each other, it is also because it was the moment you killing each other on the grounds that religion war in '30 ,This is because there is no.

Thirty Years' War in the Protestant ( Protestantism ) and Catholic (Catholic) of the war. Augsburg Protestant and Catholics all over hwaui been recognized as the state religion also guarantees religious freedom, but did not stop the confrontation between the two forces. Emperior strong, weak local state here the characteristics of the Holy Roman Empire, and poured oil. Between Protestants and Catholics eventually crashes and physically, this excuse as Sweden, Denmark, France and even Germany powers around the army was come horribly irreversible.

The country is in ruins in the war of the past, 1 /3 of the population of Germany died during the 30 years, infectious diseases to back farmland all becomes devastated, and forced to a situation where the country will collapse completely ,were. As long as it settled once and do not interrupt the war, religion or anything, be both falling together of Roman catholicism and Protestant was obvious.

Protestant and Catholic representatives face each other head was drawn Tue coast. It was no more fighting with each other. Stop the war, among other conditions for freedom of religion, but that was there. Foreign wars, but jumped heard this excuse is required by the division of the territory. Of course, this power away from the Holy Roman Empire was forced to hear it as much as possible. So the conclusion of the previous agreement would not be so hard to like, but the signing of the Treaty of Protestant and Catholic.

After all, even two times over the previous arrangement was forced to enter into a treaty. Once in the city of Protestant, Catholic and once in the city. We have two treaty called the Treaty of Westphalia. The Treaty of Westphalia was signed, and the city is just the Osnabruck and Munster. Today, the two cities have a city hall in the room at the time of the signing of the treaty of peace " room (Friedensaal)" in the name of public.



Protestants and Catholics in the city of Osnabruck, Muenster city by train only takes 30 extra to not have neighbors close by. A small town in Germany, the two cities have a lot of writing with the airport, which is often the case, too, such as Munster and Osnabruck airport that share the same living area.

More than anything, the nature of the trip is also similar. Started a large cathedral, church some eye-catching, was home at the time lords you, old town with a focus on town hall Westfalen treaty was signed, has been used at the university now ,elements that make up the city, such as a palace -like as much like.

By the way, administrative districts of the two cities are different. The Osnabruck, Lower Saxony, Munster belong to the North Rhine-Westphalia. It is a situation city adjacent Metropolitan South Gyeongsang Province South Jeolla Province is similar as if -like from us.

The two cities you like really well. However, from the slogan of the city, the difference of each other is evident. Called (Friedenstadt) city of peace itself, Osnabruck called (Universitätstadt) city of the University of Münster. In the field of the same peace, it is you're taking a neighbor where the city Igonman with the same prestigious university, the two cities are different.

The Munster, because in the old town within the university, lively is flooded crowded students to the old town. And distance and spacious and gorgeous city that look good in such atmosphere has grown out of hand, Museums are noticeable around

On the other hand, Osnabruck, or be outside of the old city college, even if I do not understand, the old town is a rustic very quiet. Small building has been focused on colorful across the small squares and narrow streets than colorful buildings. And away from the Old Town, for the first time, college town full of lively spread made ​​at that time.

I have traveled on the same day the two cities. I first met on the same day the twins. And I was able to understand that why they are the slogan of the other. The two cities were similar really much, but it was not like in the end. As dizygotic twins though.

This strange difference, can feel if if go to the day of the two cities. Worth a look and let me play with both feet a little busy for that. But instead of attending to find a spot some, it also seems to be similar, the atmosphere of the entire city, that you try to feel the atmosphere of such other. Whether it is fun within walking distance of travel such facilities.
