Georg zu Münster

Count Georg Ludwig Friedrich Wilhelm zu Münster (German: Georg Graf zu Münster; 17 February 1776 – 23 December 1844) was a German paleontologist.

[citation needed] He formed a famous collection of fossils, which was ultimately secured by the Bavarian state, and formed the nucleus of the palaeontological museum at Munich.

[1] Münster assisted Georg August Goldfuss in writing his great work, Petrefacta Germaniae.

[1] Louis Agassiz and Georges Cuvier visited him at Bayreuth, where he donated them part of his collection.
