Seckau Abbey

Seckau Abbey is part of the Diocese of Graz-Seckau and is very famous. Many people come here to see the beautiful basilica. Years ago, the left tower collapsed because the onion domes were too heavy. Since then, there has been a pointed roof. The outer towers still have onions today. The abbey also has a full-day high school with many students. That's why many school buses come in the morning. In winter, a large, famous nativity scene is set up here in the abbey, where you can also see many monks. Incidentally, there are still monks in Seckau today who follow the rules of Saint Benedict.

Particularly nice place to rest, was allowed to make music in the collegiate church, a wonderful place for me
