Art exhibitions, concerts, club festivals, art courses, legendary crossover events, concerts in screwdriver workshops, theatre in the old factory hall B and the annual EdH festival attract thousands of visitors.

Fresh jazz within old castle walls, rocking open-air concerts in the castle courtyard, museum festivals with crossover music for all generations: First-class concerts with international stars are the trademark of Vischering Castle, the most important and most beautiful ring-mantled castle in Westphalia. The defiant 13th-century fortress, which was also strongly influenced by the Renaissance, also houses a museum on its history. The uniquely idyllic landscape around the castle, criss-crossed by moats, becomes a venue for sound art. The castle is run by the culture department of the district of Coesfeld.

With guest artists, the scholarship programme and open art projects, the DA offers an experience-oriented approach to art education. DA means art – not as an ornamental accessory, but as research, play and critical discourse in a social context.

After decades of slumber, an architectural monument has been brought back to life that is unparalleled in Münster: The ice cellar of the former Beuing brewery in Altenberge. In 1996, the ice cellar in Altenberge was declared a listed building. Within the framework of the REGIONALE 2004, the extension measures and the construction of the information pavilion were carried out. The opening up of the ice cellar to the public and the construction of the “Eisscholle” information centre created a new cultural and tourist attraction in Münsterland.

The former Haus Nottbeck manor was first mentioned in a document in 1366. After extensive conversion and renovation measures, the Haus Nottbeck cultural estate was created, the core of which is the Museum of Westphalian Literature, which opened in 2001. Here, Westphalian literature is turned into a special experience through concepts such as multimedia, installations, listening stations, hands-on activities and much more. The main house and the former farm buildings have been transformed into a complex that offers a wide range of possibilities for cultural events: the annual Nottbeck book market, readings, theatre and concert events, workshops, festivals or educational programmes for school classes reflect the range of offers.

In four to six exhibitions per year, the Kunstverein Münsterland supports and promotes in particular freelance contemporary artists. The area of art education has been continuously expanded in recent years. A separate children’s and youth programme enables a lasting bond between the young cultural audience and the Kunstverein Münsterland.
