    Benedictine Abbey of Schweiklberg - Visible from afar, the twin towers of Schweiklberg Abbey stand as a landmark above Vilshofen on the Danube: just like the Gartlbergkirche above Pfarrkirchen and the Veste Oberhaus above Passau. The buildings were only constructed in the twentieth century, between 1905 and 1925. The monks, who live according to the Rule of St. Benedict, see their main task in missions, they are active in Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa. The abbey is also home to the Coelestin Maier Realschule, the Africa Museum and a café that is very busy during the summer.
