Stift Heiligenkreuz
About 20km from Mödling is Heiligenkreuz and the 12th-century Cistercian abbey Stift Heiligenkreuz. The chapter house is the final resting place of most of the Babenberg dynasty, which ruled Austria until 1246. The abbey museum contains 150 clay models by Giovanni Giuliani (1663–1744), a Venetian sculptor who also created the Trinity column in the courtyard. Note that tours in English are by request only.

Carmelite Convent
The Carmelite convent can be visited, but it’s not really worth the effort; all you see is a chapel and a couple of rooms of mementos.
