From Ruin to Event Center

The Arnoldstein Monastery Ruins - founded in 1106 as a Benedictine monastery, closed in 1783 by Joseph II, and completely destroyed by a fire in 1883, have been revitalized since 1991 and have developed into the cultural center of Arnoldstein in recent years (concerts, theater performances, readings, seminars, corporate and family celebrations, civil weddings) and are well-received beyond our municipal borders. Currently, 10 spaces with an area of 800 m² are available for targeted repurposing.

More details about history and revitalization: www.klosterruine.at

Das einst mächtige Benediktinerkloster, blieb in seiner 800-jährigen Geschichte von mehreren Bränden und Überfällen nicht verschont, und so zerfiel es allmählich. Erst seit dem Jahre 1993 wird die Klosterburg restauriert und hat sich in den letzten Jahren aufgrund der zahlreichen Veranstaltungen zum kulturellen Mittelpunkt Arnoldsteins entwickelt. (geöffnet: Juli und August von 13.00 bis 19.00 Uhr – Anmeldung im Museum, Mai/Juni und September und Oktober nach tel. Voranmeldung im Tourismusbüro Arnoldstein oder unter +43 (0)664/59 20 058, durchschn. Aufenthaltsdauer mit Führung ca. 1 Std. (+43 664 5920058)
