The Augustinian monastery of Stift Klosterneuburg, founded by Margrave Leopold III in 1114, dominates this Danube town of about 15,600 northwest of Vienna. The Verdun Altar, a twelfth-century enamel masterpiece by Nicolas of Verdun consisting of 51 gilded panels, is the abbey's most celebrated treasure. Emperor Charles VI attempted to turn the monastery into an Austrian Escorial in the eighteenth century - only a fraction of the planned expansion was completed, but the baroque additions remain impressive.
Klosterneuburg's vineyards produce some of Lower Austria's best-known wines, particularly Gruener Veltliner and Riesling from the Wagram terraces. The Essl Museum of Contemporary Art operated here until its collection was donated to the Albertina in 2017. Hotels and private addresses in Klosterneuburg accommodate companion meetings.
