Musicians and people interested in music and culture will find excellent conditions for inspired work and well-being in the historic ambience of Carinthia's oldest Benedictine monastery.

The new Alban Berg Concert Hall with mobile stage of up to 135 m2 in size and the attached recording studio highlight every performance.
