  1. Augustiner Chorherrenstift

    Rising like a vision above St Florian, the Augustiner Chorherrenstift dates at least to 819 and has been occupied by the Augustinians since 1071. The main entrance is flanked by statues and is particularly striking when bathed in afternoon sunlight.

  3. Stiftskirche

    The Stiftskirche is almost overpowering: its altar is shaped from 700 tonnes of pink Salzburg marble and the huge 18th-century organ, which is literally dripping with gold, was Europe's largest at the time it was built. To hear the organ in full song, catch one of the concerts (adult/concession with tour around €8 /around €7 ; h Mon, Wed-Fri & Sun mid-May-mid-Oct).
