  • A grand exterior perched high above the surrounding vineyards with a particularly elaborate baroque interior. Busy Sunday services. Gregorian chanted vespers sound enhanced by fantastic abbey...

  • Large, well-preserved monestary on top of a mountain with beautiful views. The church was lovely with soft color decor. The hall with the great ceiling fresco was memorable. Side rooms also painted with interesting water motifs. The tour was informative. The apricot nectar and wine tasting was nice. Beautiful views off the top of the exit area.
  • What an amazing abbey this is the architecture is magnificent and the size of this is unbelievable you can spend all day looking around and the views are to die for the gift shop is good too it can get very busy but definitely worth the visit
