Munster
Abbey Ruins

Founded by monks around 660 at the confluence of the two Fecht, the rivers of the valley, the "Monasteriolo Confluentis" gave its name to the town that was built around it. In 1648, at the end of the Thirty Years' War, the whole valley was devastated and all that remains of the old abbey are these few ruins, surrounded by countless storks' nests.
