Stift Melk, Austria

Untitled
Our next stop in Austria was an Abbey called Stift Melk (Melk Abbey). It is a Benedictine abbey, and one of the world's most famous monastic sites. It is located above the town of Melk overlooking the river Danube. It is a beautiful building inside and out and the color of the paint makes it really stand out!

There were several modern paintings like this around the courtyard.
