Stift Baumgartenberg, Cistercian monastery in Baumgartenberg, Austria.
The monastery complex includes a church with a three-nave entrance hall, Romanesque portal, and a choir gallery surrounded by a walkway.
Otto von Machland and Jeuta von Peilstein established the monastery in 1141, with initial monks arriving from the Cistercian primary abbey of Morimond.
The Baumgartenberg manuscripts from the 14th century contain an urbarium from 1335 and a formula book detailing monastery administration.
The monastery now functions as an educational center with a girls' boarding school and the Europagymnasium, established in 1995.
The Upper Austrian coat of arms originates from the House of Machland, as evidenced by miniatures in the monastery's urbarium.
