In 1998, many European countries commemorated the Treaty of Westphalia on occasion of its 350th anniversary celebrations with numerous exhibitions and publications. On this web site, the research centre "Westfälischer Friede" plans to document exhibitions and publications dealing with this topic. The documentation starts with the exhibitions in Münster/Osnabrück and will be regularly enlarged.
