Innovative companies, varied tourism, important science and inspiring culture – that’s what Münsterland stands for. Almost 1.6 million people live on almost 6,000 square kilometers in the regional center of Münster and the districts of Borken, Coesfeld, Steinfurt and Warendorf.
The Münsterland is a dynamic economic region with a high quality of life, a variety of industries and numerous medium-sized companies in the city and in the country. You can do everything well here: work, live and of course live. The people in Münsterland are full of energy and team spirit; they lead, develop and shape the strong medium-sized businesses and family businesses. It is not for nothing that Münsterland has had the lowest unemployment rate in North Rhine-Westphalia for years. In interaction with actors from networks and science, they contribute to the region's high innovative strength, which is particularly pronounced thanks to regional competencies in areas such as digital solutions, health and bioanalytics, engineering services and new materials. Companies have long since taken on the challenges of digitalization, changing value creation structures and resource-saving management and are looking ahead together to consolidate their position on the global market.
This is one of the reasons why Münsterland is a region with a future, whose population is growing and, according to forecasts, will remain stable in the future. The region also knows how to impress beyond the economic location: with impressive palaces and castles, exciting towns and villages and beautiful nature in a wide park landscape. The predominantly flat terrain with its approximately 4,500 kilometer long circular route network is a paradise, especially for cyclists. Horse lovers will also find a wide range of options in Münsterland with more than 1000 kilometers of riding routes. The distinctive cultural offering with museums, concerts and events of international standard also increases the quality of the location and quality of life. Everything together makes up what the region and its claim stand for: MÜNSTERLAND. THE GOOD LIFE.
