*************

Neumünster (German pronunciation: [nɔʏˈmʏnstɐ]) is an urban municipality in the middle of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. With more than 79,000 registered inhabitants, it is the fourth-largest municipality in Schleswig-Holstein (behind Kiel, Lübeck and Flensburg).

The first historic record of the precursor village "Wippendorf" dates from 1127.

Current situation

Neumünster station is a major railway junction with lines running in six (formerly seven) directions, including the important Hamburg-Altona–Kiel and Neumünster–Flensburg lines.

Near Neumünster at Ehndorf, there is a high-power medium wave transmission facility for transmitting the program of Deutschlandfunk, the Ehndorf transmitter, which is often named incorrectly as "Neumünster transmitter".

Geography

Neumünster is located at river Schwale, near the geographical center of Schleswig-Holstein, 35 kilometres (22 mi) south of Kiel, 65 kilometres (40 mi) north of Hamburg and 72 kilometres (45 mi) west of Lübeck. The Aukrug Nature Park is close to the town.

Neumünster (niederdeutsch: Niemünster und Neemünster) ist eine kreisfreie Stadt und ein Oberzentrum in der Mitte Schleswig-Holsteins. Mit rund 79.000 Einwohnern (Stand 2015) ist sie nach Kiel, Lübeck und Flensburg die viertgrößte Stadt des nördlichsten deutschen Landes.

Urkundlich zum ersten Mal 1127 als Augustiner-Stift Wippenthorp im Gau Faldera erwähnt, war Neumünster lange ein Zentrum der deutschen Tuch- und Lederindustrie und ist seit alters her ein wichtiger Verkehrsknotenpunkt. Ab 1870 im Besitz der Stadtrechte, gehört die große Mittelstadt an der Schwale seit Mai 2012 zur Metropolregion Hamburg.
