Gaming Charterhouse, Former Carthusian monastery in Gaming, Austria

The monastery complex spans over 43,000 square meters with a central courtyard, Gothic church, baroque library, and multiple residential buildings connected by covered walkways.

Duke Albert II of Austria established this monastery in 1330 as a burial site for his family, housing 24 monks from Mauerbach Charterhouse in Vienna.

The monastery museum displays artifacts and documents detailing the daily lives of Carthusian monks and their influence on medieval Austrian society.

Visitors can join guided tours every day at 11:00 and 17:00 from June through September to explore the church, library, halls, and museum sections.

The monastery operates its own brewery in the historic vaults, producing Gaminger Kartausen Bräu beer using traditional Austrian brewing methods.
