Absolutely worth seeing, a magical place! Quote: "As if its builders wanted to be a little closer to heaven: Melk Abbey is the most magnificent building in the Wachau. Everything here is splendor, and everything strives upwards. And the Danube flows below."
That's right, that probably sums it up. An imposing, magnificent building, built in a prominent location. A visit is a MUST if you are in the region. Highly recommended, the experience will stay with you.
