Admont Abbey Library, Austria

Admont Abbey (German: Stift Admont, (IPA: [ʃ͡tɪft ˈaːdˌmont])) is a Benedictine monastery located on the Enns River[1][2] in the town of Admont, Austria. The oldest remaining monastery in Styria, Admont Abbey contains the largest monastic library in the world[2][3] as well as a long-established scientific collection. It is known for its Baroque architecture, art, and manuscripts.

The abbey's location on the borders of the mountainous Gesäuse National Park (the name Admont derives from the Latin expression "ad montes", which means "at the mountains") is of unusual scenic beauty.
