The view of Melk Abbey is an impressive experience that highlights both the historical and architectural significance of this baroque jewel. Melk Abbey, a Benedictine monastery, towers majestically above the Danube and is a landmark of the Wachau region.

It's simply a wonderful sight when you've completed a long walk on the World Heritage Trail and then come out of the floodplain forest to the bridge near Melk. The monastery sits majestically on the hill and you can immediately sense how hikers must have felt in the 18th century when they arrived here after a long pilgrimage.
