Germany: History of Osnabrück

On 15th September I got two postcards: one from Germany and one from Austria. 

The card from Germany is the Chronicle card of Osnabrück. Around 800 Charlemagne founded a diocese in Osnabrück and in the 13th century it joined the Hanseatic League, the most important historic event in the city's history however happened in 1648. Back then the Peace of Westphalia was signed in Osnabrück and Münster. 

I recently bought this card online and used it to get this advertising postmark about the European Heritage Label.
