    The abbey was founded, probably in 1062, by six knights.
    For almost 1,000 years, monks have lived here according to the rules of Saint Benedict.
    In addition to the abbey buildings, you will find a large garden, the archaeological museum, the religious center and the cultural center.


    The abbey acquired culinary fame through its tasty abbey cheese and its delicious beer.
