Kloster Mariabrunn, Penzing, Monastery and museum in Penzing district, Vienna, Austria

The two-story rectangular Baroque monastery complex contains two unequal courtyards divided by a central cross-wing and connects to a parish pilgrimage church.

The monastery, completed in 1655 by architect Domenico Carlone, underwent expansions between 1726 and 1739, with Lucas von Hildebrandt likely designing the cross-wing section.

The pilgrimage site features a 16th-century statue of Mary at the high altar, with a replica adorning the historic fountain in the church square.

The Federal Research and Training Centre for Forests, Natural Hazards and Landscape currently occupies the former monastery buildings at Hauptstrasse 7.

Between 1813 and 1875, the monastery housed the Imperial Forestry Institute before becoming part of the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences.
