St. Lambrecht Abbey
Seckau Benedictine Abbey
Seckau Abbey can look back on an eventful 850 years of history. Despite repeated destruction and being abolished twice, the abbey on Seckau Plateau always managed to rise again. It is now one of Styria's oldest and most valuable cultural treasures.
Seckau Benedictine Abbey offers guided tours on artistic and cultural themes:
History and mission of the abbey (exhibition) and ecclesiastical art past and present (including the Hapsburg mausoleum and Boeckl Chapel in the basilica). Duration: approx. 1 hour
The schnapps distillery also attracts a lot of attention: You can find out about how spirits and liqueurs are produced and taste the results on a 45 minute tour.
Guided tours are available from Monday to Sunday from 9:00am to 5:00pm by prior appointment.
After the guided tour of the abbey you visit the abbey shop or the surrounding culinary establishments.
