About

Discover the Historic Klosterneuburg Abbey Wine Cellars

Step inside a piece of living history at Klosterneuburg Abbey, home to Austria’s oldest winery. This exclusive guided tour takes you deep beneath the monastery to explore a remarkable ensemble of baroque wine cellars, with architecture stretching four levels below ground and protected by robust brick walls.

A Journey Underground

Your journey begins with a descent 36 metres below the abbey, where a constant year-round temperature is maintained by a unique, centuries-old ventilation system. The cellars’ cool, stable climate has been ideal for maturing fine wines for generations and creates a distinct sense of atmosphere as you walk through the impressive vaulted halls and chambers.

Baroque Design and Winemaking Heritage

Guides share insights into over 900 years of winemaking tradition at Klosterneuburg, revealing how both historic and modern methods come together in this setting. Learn how early cellaring practices developed here laid the foundation for Austria’s wine production and see how technology continues to evolve within these time-honoured walls.

  • Discover hidden passages and learn the history behind the abbey’s legendary ventilation system

  • Experience the unique environment that keeps the cellars between 12 and 14 degrees Celsius all year round

  • See the massive, meter-thick brick structures that have protected the monastery’s wine for centuries

Treasures, Tastings and More

The tour includes access to the Treasure Chamber, where Klosterneuburg's prized Archduke’s Hat is on display — a masterpiece rich in local heritage. You’ll also visit the Abbey Museum and admission to the annual exhibition is included, providing a broader context to both the abbey’s spiritual and cultural role.

No visit is complete without a tasting: after your tour, enjoy a glass of the abbey’s acclaimed wine or a refreshing apple juice. Tastings are hosted in the 13th-century Stiftsvinothek, an ancient cellar vault where the flavour and legacy of Austrian wine are celebrated in every sip.

Why Visit Klosterneuburg Abbey?
