Move to Steinfurt – Your moving company KOCH Moving Logistics for stress-free moves

YOUR DISTRICT TOWN WITH HISTORY AND QUALITY OF LIFE

Willkommen in Steinfurt

With a population of around 35,000, Steinfurt is the county seat of the district of the same name in the Münsterland region. The town is shaped by two historic quarters: Burgsteinfurt with its moated castle, and Borghorst with its long textile tradition.

Protestant and Catholic heritage come together here. The Bagno, an 18th-century English-style landscape park, is home to Europe's oldest freestanding concert hall. The Hohe Schule, once a Reformed college, tells the story of the town's academic past. Today, Steinfurt is home to five departments of the Münster University of Applied Sciences. The beautiful parklands of the Münsterland region are perfect for cycling and walks.

With KOCH Moving Logistics by your side, you have an experienced partner for a stress‑free fresh start. We look forward to welcoming you to Steinfurt soon!

LIVING AND FEELING GOOD IN STEINFURT

Steinfurt is a town with two faces, each with its own charm. Burgsteinfurt impresses with its historic old town around the moated castle, the Great and Small Churches, and the market square lined with Renaissance and Biedermeier period houses. Borghorst, on the other hand, is defined by St. Nikomedes Church – one of the largest hall churches in North Rhine-Westphalia – and a lively pedestrian zone.

The town is known throughout the Münsterland region for being cycle‑friendly. A well‑developed network of cycle paths connects the districts and invites you to take long rides. Particularly attractive is the Steinfurt Bagno, an 18th‑century English landscape park featuring Europe's oldest freestanding concert hall and a lake – perfect for relaxation.

Münster University of Applied Sciences has five departments at its Steinfurt campus: Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Energy/Buildings/Environment, and Physical Technology. This makes the town an excellent choice for students in technical and scientific fields.

The school offering is comprehensive: six primary schools, one secondary school (Hauptschule), two intermediate schools (Realschulen), two grammar schools (the traditional Gymnasium Arnoldinum – successor to the Hohe Schule – and Gymnasium Borghorst), two special needs schools, and two vocational colleges.

The town of Steinfurt does not pay a welcome bonus, but it scores points with a wide range of services for new residents and students, such as welcome events, information offers, and personal advice on studying and training.

Leisure, culture and family friendliness

Steinfurt delights visitors with a rich cultural and leisure programme. Highlights include Burgsteinfurt Castle,a moated castle dating back to the 12th century, and the Bagno – a landscape park featuring Europe's oldest freestanding concert hall, a lake and forest. The Bagno – ein Landschaftspark mit der ältesten freistehenden Konzerthalle Europas, See und Wald. Die Hohe Schule (now the Arnoldinum grammar school) bears witness to the town's academic past, while in Borghorst, St. Nikomedes Church impresses as one of the largest hall churches in North Rhine‑Westphalia.

Throughout the year, events such as the Bagno Soundgarden, the traditional Schweinemarkt, the Wine & Beer Festival and Gourmet Night attract visitors. Fairs and Christmas markets in both districts round off the offering.

Active holidaymakers can cycle along the 100‑Castle Route, swim in the BagnoMare combined pool or open‑air lido, hike in the park or go horse riding in the farming hamlets. Families appreciate the 27 day‑care centres and numerous playgrounds.
