Beromünster is a municipality in the canton Lucerne.
background
The municipality of Beromünster was officially called Münster LU until 1934; in earlier times the name Münster in Aargau was also in use. The story was primarily influenced by the collegiate monastery, which was founded in 1036 and still exists today. A school was founded by the monastery in 1226. The first dated book in Switzerland was also printed here in 1470. It was always the main place of the so-called Michelsamt, which was dissolved in 1798. Since then, Beromünster has been part of the Sursee office.
Most of them, however, will be familiar with Beromüster because of the state broadcaster Beromünster that was established in 1937.
On September 1, 2004, the old Beromünster community merged with Schwarzenbach LU to form a new Beromünster community.
