St. Florian's Priory, Augustinian monastery in Sankt Florian, Austria
The priory contains extensive Baroque architectural elements throughout its structures, including decorated halls, corridors, and ceremonial rooms spanning multiple floors.
The monastery, established in 1071 by Altmann of Passau, underwent major reconstruction between 1686 and 1708 under architects Carlo Carlone and Jakob Prandtauer.
The monastery library preserves 130,000 items, including the Sankt Florian Psalter manuscript containing texts in Latin, German, and Polish languages.
Visitors can participate in guided tours of the monastery, which include access to the basilica, imperial marble hall, and library wing.
The Bruckner organ, named after composer Anton Bruckner who served as organist from 1848 to 1855, remains a central musical instrument in the basilica.
