The Hanseatic city Soest lies in the east North Rhine-Westphalia. The place with almost 50,000 inhabitants lies between Dortmund and Paderborn in the Soester Börde, which is part of the Hellwegbörden belongs.
background
The old Hanseatic city of Soest (historically: Sosat, Latinized Susatum) has a history of almost 1200 years, the first written mention of it comes from 836. Soest is at least 400 years older than almost all central European cities. The city was on Hellweg, an important medieval trade route that crossed Westphalia from west to east. The so-called Soest city law was the first verifiably recorded city law in Germany (it was noted on cowhides) and was a model for over 70 cities, especially in northern Germany.
In the Middle Ages Soest was one of the wealthiest trading cities in Central Europe and one of the principal cities of the Hanseatic League. The self-confident Soest bourgeoisie even tried to gain independence from the Archdiocese of Cologne. This sparked a five-year feud in the middle of the 15th century, during which the city was placed under an imperial ban. As a result, Soest became part of the Herzugtum Kleve-Mark and received extensive privileges. However, the city was now directly on the border and was cut off from its hinterland, which still belonged to the territory of the archbishops. As a result, Soest lost much of its former importance and prosperity in the following decades and centuries, the merchants' houses fell into disrepair and a large part of the citizens had to live on agriculture.
Under Prussian rule Soest was made a district town and received an important train station, but different from the cities of the nearby Ruhr area no significant industry or population growth developed. The advantage of this (inadequate) development, however, is that the medieval townscape has largely been preserved and has not been replaced by more modern buildings.
Despite considerable damage in the Second World War, the historic city center was largely preserved. Over 600 buildings are listed in the center of Soest.
Among the most famous personalities in Soest's history are the artists Conrad von Soest (1370–1422; a painter of the soft late Gothic style), Heinrich Aldegrever (1502 – approx. 1555; a copper engraver, painter and seal cutter of the Renaissance).

Tourist Attractions
Streets and squares
- On the edge of Petrikirchplatz Towards the town hall there is a view of the city center cast in bronze, which was cast for blind citizens. It shows a three-dimensional view of the city and is provided with braille.
- The small alleys between the half-timbered houses with the round walls typical of Soest.
- If you walk through the alleys and narrow streets, you will notice the half-timbered houses with their protruding gables. This construction method was used so that the upper floors, where there was usually a store, could be better equipped with a pulley.
Parks
Similar to the Pader springs in Paderborn, there are also rivers gushing out of the ground in Soest. These arise among other things in the Big pond and under today's parking lot nearby. The two streams later flow together into the Lippe.
Criminal offenders used to be bobbed into the pond. Today three people are symbolically teetered into the pond every year who have not taken sufficient care of the city's well-being. For example, the head of the Stadtwerke, whose company lost power during the All Saints' Fair. Sometimes people were still hanging out in the attractions.

The historical range extends far and wide with the various departments: According to the history of Soest as an ancient settlement area, the collection begins with the Neolithic and then continues until the beginning of the 19th century, but with an increasingly everyday (local history) orientation. That is right next to the castle courtyard Romanesque house from 1180, the oldest surviving house in Westphalia.Open: Tue-Sat 10: 00-12: 00 and 15: 00-17: 00, Sun 11: 00-13: 00.Price: Single ticket € 2, reduced € 1.

It has a collection of 25,000 medieval crossbow bolts. This is the old military treasure of the city of Soest, which until the beginning of the 19th century was housed in the tower of St. Patrokli, which did not belong to the church but to the city and also served as an armory.

His artistic rise began in 1910-1912, but it came to an abrupt end with the First World War. Wilhelm Morgner died at Langemark when he was only 26 years old.

Churches
In Soest there are seven old churches within the ramparts (old core of Soest) that were built from green sandstone.
- 5 St. Patrokli Cathedral, Domplatz, 59494 Soest. Romanesque basilica with a massive, 80 meter high tower, flanked by four corner towers, one of the most characteristic church towers in Westphalia. A special nativity scene is set up in the cathedral during the Christmas season. This nativity scene is expanded by one figure every year. The figures show the faces of Soestern who took care of the city.
- 6 St. Maria to the meadow (Wiesenkirche), Wiesenstrasse 26, 59494 Soest. Tel.: 49 (0)2921 344 00 50, Email: [email protected]. Perfectly designed Gothic hall church. In the choir there is a row of very high, colorful windows from the 14th and 15th centuries that almost reach the floor, creating a light-flooded impression in the interior. Further sights inside are the "Westphalian Madonna" from the 14th century and the Aldegrever altar from 1526.Open: Mon-Sat 11: 00-16: 00; Sun 11: 30-16: 00, public holidays 12: 00-16: 00.
.jpg/350px-20140601_131813_St._Maria_zur_Wiese,_Soest_(DSC02285).jpg)
- 7 St. Mary on the heights (Mocking Church), Am Hohnekirchhof 3, 59494 Soest. The Hohnekirche is a Romanesque-Gothic hall church and was one of the first hall churches in Westphalia. Special attention should be paid to the disc cross, an art-historical unique form of the triumphal cross from around 1200.
- 8 St. Petri, Petrikirchhof, 59494 Soest. The oldest parish church in Soest and one of the oldest church foundations in Westphalia - hence the local name "Alde Kerke". As early as the end of the 8th century, a church was built on this site in connection with Charlemagne's Saxony mission. As the city grew in the following centuries, the church became too small and new churches had to be built or the old ones expanded. The current church was consecrated in 1150. St. Petri is the main church of the Protestant St. Petri Pauli parish in Soest.
- 9 St. Pauli, Paulistraße 26, 59494 Soest. Gothic, three-bay hall church with a mighty, square tower.
- 10 Alt-St. Thomä (leaning Tower), Thomästrasse 72, 59494 Soest. The idiosyncratic crooked spire, inclined to the west, was built in 1653 by the town carpenter Goebel Styes. Explanations for misalignment are that the misalignment of the tower hood results from damage in the framework (supported by wood examinations) or the tower hood leans against the local main wind direction (westerly wind).
- 11 New St. Thomä, Klosterstrasse 10, 59494 Soest. Gothic monastery church of the former Franciscan monastery Soest, today a Protestant parish church.
