NEUBERG ABBEY (STIFT NEUBERG)

This former Cistercian monastery, dating from the 14th century, was founded by the mother abbey of Heiligenkreuz, a descendant of the French abbey of Morimond, and has preserved its historic appearance. The Treaty of Neuberg was signed here. For a time, the buildings housed the Water and Forestry Department. Now privatised, the abbey belongs to a property group. Some parts of the abbey can be visited and are home to museums (natural sciences and art).
