Benediktinerabtei Weltenburg (Germany) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Benediktinerabtei Weltenburg in Germany.
Close to the southern German city of Kelheim, the Danube flows through a wild, romantic and rocky landscape where both nature and culture combine in a unique way: at a sharp bend in the river is the Weltenburg Benedictine Abbey, the oldest surviving monastery in Bavaria. In the eighth century, the rules of the Benedictine order were adopted and in 932 A.D. Weltenburg came into the possession of the Bishop of Regensburg. In 1714 the foundation stone of a new monastery complex was established and the talents of Munich artist and architect, Cosmas Damian Asam, were engaged. The vestibule with its stucco busts, ceiling painting of the Last Judgement, and stucco reliefs of the Four Last Things gradually introduce the large dimensions of the dome and, from the vestibule, the main room shines out with magnificent altars in gold and marble. The success of the monastery of today is due to Abbot Maurus Bächl. Under him the Baroque complex was built along with the world famous Asam Church including farm buildings, a mill and a school. In 1050 A.D. the monastery’s brewery was founded. It is the world’s oldest brewery in which beer continues to be brewed according to Bavaria’s Purity Laws. Although today only fourteen monks live in the monastery, the guiding principle of the Order is still observed and visitors continue to enjoy the spiritual ambience of this holy place along with its worldly pleasures.

Kloster Weltenburg │Klosterschenke - the Danube - Beer Garden - the baroque church
The Weltenburg Abbey - Kloster Weltenburg - is the oldest monastery in Bavaria. It's located in Kehlheim, not far away from Regensburg. In order to reach the monastery halfly surrounded the the river Danube. Weather you go there in summer or in winter, the view onto the monastery has a special magic. The majestic building made up of bricks layered some hundred years ago is amazing to visit. You can walk around the monastery directly near the Danube or buy some souvenirs in the Weltenburg shop.
Definitely, you should never miss the monastic beer garden in the inner courtyard of the monastery. Bavarian special meals like rost pork, dumplings, potato salad, Schnitzel and the typical Weltenburg dark beer are worth trying and waiting for you. To mention in advance, the prices are quite majestic as well, but okay: visitors and tourists from all over the world rush in and wanna experience the monastic feeling of Weltenburg. So, they are open and prepared to pay for such prices - I don't know, if it's justifiable to set up prices like that.
Anyway, you go somewhere on holiday and wanna have fun - so go there without thinking about cents. Enjoy your time and be thankful for such great hotspots that contribute to enlarge your horizon.
