Kloster Schönbühel, Catholic monastery in Schönbühel-Aggsbach, Austria

The Schönbühel Monastery stands on a rocky outcrop above the Danube River, featuring a church dedicated to Saint Rosalia with decorated chapels and grottoes.

Count Conrad Balthasar von Starhemberg established the Servite monastery in 1666 on the site of ancient ruins known as the Devil's Palace.

The monastery contains detailed frescoes by Johann Bergl and includes a representation of the Flight from Egypt within its decorated chambers.

Regular religious services take place in the former monastery church, which remains accessible for visitors along the Danube cycle route.

Stone steps carved into the mountain lead to a grotto depicting the nativity scene and continue down to the Danube River.
