Augustinian Canons Regular Monastery St. Florian
The Augustinian Canons' Monastery of St. Florian is a place of meeting and devotion, the cultural center of the region and a treasure of the Austrian Baroque.
Particularly worth mentioning are the library with more than 150,000 volumes, the imperial marble hall, the Sebastian altar by Albrecht Altdorfer, the crypt with Anton Bruckner's sarcophagus and the "Bruckner organ" in the monastery basilica. St. Florian is known as a place of pilgrimage far beyond the borders of Austria.
Saint Florian is said to have been buried here and the famous composer Anton Bruckner also found his final resting place here. In the course of the jubilee year 2024 (Anton Bruckner's 200th birthday), a museum about the composer is being built here.
