Furth bei Goettweig

Travel Guide

Gottweig Abbey was established in the 11th century. It has had monks onsite for over 900 years, longer than any other Abbey or monastery in Europe. Most of the structures burnt to the ground in the 18th century, so a majority of the buildings are a mere 300 years old. The Abbey library contains an outstanding collection of both print volumes and drawings, many of which have now been digitized through a partnership with Danube University-Krems. While the heavy fog that often rolls off the Danube makes the scene look pretty gothic, the cathedral is actually baroque.

Stayed for one night, very compact room verging on a bit too small. Comfy bed, quiet room, friendly staff. A short walk from the station and not far from the downtown restaurants.
