(for all participants of any ARES 2007 Conference and Workshops)

Guided tour to the Monastery of Klosterneuburg and Conference Dinner, Tuesday, April 10.

Klosterneuburg is located on the Danube, immediately north of Vienna, from which it is separated by the famous hill of Kahlenberg.

 

We will have a guided tour through the magnificent buildings (erected 1730-1834) of the Augustine canonry, founded in the twelfth century  by Margrave Leopold the Holy. This foundation is the oldest and richest of the kind in Austria. Among the points of interest within it are the old chapel of 1318, with Leopold's tomb and the altar of Verdun, dating from the 12th century, the treasury and relic-chamber, the library with 30,000 volumes, the picture gallery, the collection of coins, the theological hall, and the wine cellar.

 

After the visit of the monastery we will have a typical Dinner at the Wine Cellar (Stiftskeller) of the Monastery.
