Westerkappeln, municipality of Germany
Westerkappeln is a municipality in Steinfurt district in North Rhine-Westphalia and consists of several villages and surrounding landscapes. The municipal area spreads across gentle hills and farmland interspersed with small patches of forest.
The area was settled in medieval times and developed as a community in this region. The current municipality took shape through administrative reforms in the 20th century.
