Lunch in the city or a walk by the lake. Where will your lunch break take you?

volt.works is ideally located right next to both, which doesn't make the decision any easier.

Münster: Rain and church bells...

It's an old saying but some of it literally rings true. Whether it's a short shopping spree, a tasty lunchtime meal or a quality coffee house, this town has it all and it's right outside your door.


The Aa-lake

The path around the lake is 6km in total. That's the perfect size to fit in a brisk walk or a jog plus coffee into your lunch break. Fill your lungs with fresh air and recharge before the second half of the day begins.
