Switzerland Travel Community: Basel%20Munster - Basel Popular%20Sights

It is made of red sandstone, with two towers (one seems always to be under construction). It is worth it to take a guide and let him explain all the things you...

Basel Things to Do Tips by Myndo - VirtualTourist.com
On one April 1st (fools day) a radio station made a joke, saying, that the gouvernment has decided to paint the Middle Bridge white. That was quite an uproar (for nothing, since it was only a joke).

The years 1518-1529 form an interlude, incompletely documented, in Munster's life. This was nevertheless a period of strenuous intellectual activity, expressed in numerous publications in hebraistics and by his earliest printed works on cosmography, geography and applied mathematics.
