Duernstein is one of the most beautiful places you may visit in the WACHAU -( the Danube-valley between Krems and Melk)
on top of the mountain you may see the ruins of an old castle - in this castle Richard Lionheart was held in prison after a cruisade . |
|  | The old monestary of Duernstein is worth seeing not only from outside, but has also a great interior |

Great stuff on your Dürnstein pages, Michael. It will certainly be included in my next trip to Austria. As usual, your concise writing brings life to your pictures. I don't know if I have enough time in my life to get to all of your pages. Prosit to you! | 1courage Sun Jul 22, 2007 09:18 UTC
I just love austrian baroque. This monastery is a good example to illustrate the amazing arts of this period. | longsanborn Tue Apr 17, 2007 10:37 UTC
Wow, what an old old beauty! I love visiting Durnstein. | Pawtuxet Wed Jan 17, 2007 13:21 UTC
Your pic of the church and grape vines popped up on the front page of VT. Looks like a wonderful hillside to walk in the sun. |
