St. Georgenberg-Fiecht Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Vomp, Austria
The abbey stands on a rocky outcrop above Inn Valley, featuring a Baroque church with three apses and a domed choir crossing from 1750.
Founded as a hermitage in the 10th century, the monastery received official Benedictine status in 1138 and relocated to Fiecht in 1708 following multiple fires.
The interior displays ceiling frescoes by Matthäus Günther, intricate stucco work by Feichtmayr brothers, and religious artworks throughout the church spaces.
Visitors can reach the monastery using the 15th-century Hohe Brücke bridge and explore both the religious buildings and surrounding mountain paths.
The monks returned to their original location at St. Georgenberg in 2019 after selling their premises in Fiecht, marking a return to their historical roots.
