Step into over 900 years of history — from the abbey’s founding by Margrave Leopold III to Emperor Charles VI’s ambitious (but never completed) plan to transform it into an imperial palace.

This richly layered tour leads you through:

• Former imperial private apartments of the Habsburg rulers
• The magnificent Baroque abbey church with its early Baroque festival organ and intricately carved choir stalls
• The medieval cloister, where the monastery’s story began
• The world-famous Verdun Altar in the Leopold Chapel, burial place of Saint Leopold

Duration: approx. 90 minutes

Wine has been produced at the abbey since 1114 — making Klosterneuburg Austria’s oldest wine estate.

On this immersive tour, journey through:

• Vast Baroque-era cellar halls
• Modern winemaking facilities combining tradition and sustainability
• The deep barrique cellar where premium wines mature
• A beautifully illuminated historic press house that brings the abbey’s wine heritage to life

Duration: approx. 90 minutes | Private and exclusive guided experience

Step into a little-known but deeply meaningful chapter of the Trapp family’s story during their years in Klosterneuburg in the early 1920s — long before their international fame.

This special guided tour traces the close relationship between the family and the abbey, revealing how life within this monastic community shaped the children through:

• daily encounters with faith and worship

• education within the abbey’s historic surroundings

• the powerful role of sacred music and family music-making

• friendships and personal connections with the Augustinian canons

As you move through key locations of the monastery — from the abbey church to the cloister and the Leopold Chapel with the Verdun Altar — carefully selected archival materials, letters, and historical documents bring this formative period vividly to life.
