Viktorsberg Minorite Monastery, Minorite monastery in Viktorsberg, Austria

The monastery buildings form an irregular quadrangle with a southern parish church, featuring three two-story sections and gable roofs to the west.

Founded in 834 as a Scottish monastery, the site transformed into a Minorite monastery in 1383 under Count Rudolf IV of Montfort's direction.

The monastery houses a mission museum since 1971, preserving religious artifacts and documenting the spiritual heritage of the Vorarlberg region.

Located 250 meters from Viktorsberg's center at 880 meters altitude, the monastery now serves as a cultural and conference center.

The monastery's eastern portal displays an inscription from Psalm 118:20, while its inner courtyard contains a cloister with pointed arch windows.
