The Benedictine Abbey of Andechs (Kloster Andechs) sits high on the sacred mountain(Heiliger Berg), overlooking the green, bucolic landscape that heralds the Alps. At its foot, the beautiful farms and isolated hamlets have retained all their picturesque character of yesteryear. To get in the mood, listen again to the cantata Carmina Burana by Bavarian composer Carl Orff: his ashes rest in the church of Andechs Abbey, in accordance with his wishes. Every summer, a festival honors his music.
