ardmont abbey library


Admont, the largest library of the monastery in the world, is enormous, but it is beautiful enough to be mesmerized by the scenery that catches your eye as soon as you open the connecting door.

About 70,000 books are decorated inside the library. It is divided by themes, so it can be a pleasant trip point to find out what subjects were interested in and studied in the 18th century monasteries. In particular, there is a section related to Asia, and there are various books. It is impressive that he was interested in and studied even the story of a foreign country that would have seemed farther away at the time.

Not only the beautiful architecture and interior scenery, but also the four statues adorning the library and the paintings on the ceiling are worth appreciating the artworks.
