STAMS ABBEY (STIFT STAMS)
Romanesque Cistercian abbey housing the Rose Gate, which gives access to the Heilig Blut chapel.
This much-visited Romanesque Cistercian abbey was founded in the 13th century and became the burial place of the princes of Tyrol. Numerous artists contributed to its embellishment. The abbey church features the Rose Gate leading to the Heilig Blut ("Holy Blood") chapel, as well as the high altar with its Tree of Jesse altarpiece. A grand staircase leads to the Salle des Princes, with its frescoes evoking the life of Saint Bernard. Audioguide available at www.hearonymus.com.
