A jewel of the Baroque era meets contemporary art. 70.000 restored books, ceiling frescoes and sculptures in the magnificent world largest monastery library meet creations of Erwin Wurm, Rudi Molacek and Lois Renner in the huge museum of the Abbey. The new gothic exhibition 'Close to Heaven' is putting on display a major collection of medieval sculptures and painted panels of the collection Mayer. -The artworks of the late Middle Ages continue to exert a powerful fascination on us even today. Beside there is a Natural history museum with exhibits dating to 1866 - 1906 (the 'Museum in the Museum') and a Museum of Fine Arts as well as plays host to special exhibitions and a multimedia Abbey presentation.

Recently during a guided tour we stopped for an hour to see the library at the Abbey at Admont, it was worth every single minute and we would have loved to spend more time there. The building itself is stunning and the selection of books on display (no touching please) out of this world. As other travellers have remarked, the Google of its' day with books on all subjects, not just religion. Beautiful, they have some interesting exhibitions in adjacent rooms too. And for fresh air you can walk around a bit on the grounds of the abbey if time permits. Go see it for yourself if possible

Set in a quiet area well known for one of the most famous Hollywood actors, this church is so very different in design. Very modern and lovely design certainly not typical.
