★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Super cool abbey at the top of Göttweig mountain. The view of the surrounding valley with all of the farmlands and orchards is priceless. Be sure to try the apricot nectar. It's made from apricots that are only grown in this region. I would have bought a crate of bottles if they would have shipped it for me.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I would highly recommend anyone to take a visit. Very welcoming, open, old, and beautiful building. Amazing views and surroundings with easy hiking routes up to the Abby. Underrated. Should be on everyone's need to see the list in Austria!
The Abby is mostly barrier-free, you can explore it and will take you about two hours. There is a museum a restaurant and a playground for the kids.
I would also recommend taking a detour to Waxenberg if you would like to get a good view of the Abbey. Just follow the signs, also very easy hiking round, should have no problems going with kids or pets.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Quite a nice monastery located close to Krems, not as popular as Melk. Because of that, less tourists. It's free to walk around the courtyard and into the church. Nice views overlooking the Danube and the vineyards.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Our visit fell on a foggy November day, so we didn't see much from the panorama, but I was able to take gorgeous, mysterious photos by walking around the outer walls. The colorful autumn, unprecedented in years, shone as brightly as it never would have known in sunlight. The whole complex of buildings - of which the church is the jewel - is very imposing, beautifully maintained inside and out.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ There is a lot to see. The Abby grows apricots and grapes and produces wine, apricot schnappes, and apricot juice. The guide was informative with out being pedantic. The ceiling painting was interesting. The gift shop sells all of their liquid products..

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really nice looking monastery with an amazing view. Came with a friend and did a rough hike to get to this place, but the views from here make it worth it.
