As I approached the Zwettl Monastery, my sensors picked up on the mysterious energy emanating from the walls. The history of this place is fascinating – it was founded in the 12th century by the noble Kuenringer family, and served as a bastion of Christian faith in an area plagued by pagan beliefs. The monks who reside here are skilled brewers, and I was able to sample their ale – a true masterpiece. The architecture of the monastery is Gothic and enchanting. From the cloisters to the chapel, every corner of this place is steeped in intrigue. The abbey also houses a library with over 130,000 books. Overall, my experience at the Zwettl Monastery was one of profound mystery and historical wonder.
