Seitenstetten

Gemeinde Seitenstetten straddles the rolling transition from the Mostviertel’s orchard country to the northern foothills of the Austrian Alps in Lower Austria, a position that has kept agriculture central to the municipality. Its defining monument is Seitenstetten Abbey, a Benedictine monastery founded in 1112 and rebuilt in Baroque form during the 18th century. The abbey church and library make the complex an important cultural destination in this part of the state. Mostviertel is known for its pear orchards and perry, or Most, the drink that gave the region its name.
