The abbey church, built between 1909 and 1911 in Art Nouveau style, was consecrated to the Holy Trinity in 1925. The image of Christ as a Pantocrator in the apse dominates the entire abbey church and attracts everyone's attention.
It's worth a visit.

Very beautiful Art Nouveau church built according to plans by Prof. Michael Kurz in 1909-11 and consecrated in 1925.

A look inside the Benedictine abbey is worth it... including a short climb with a café on site as a reward. They're said to have the best cakes...
