Restoration
Glasses clink again in the old monastery cellar
Idealists have closed a cultural and historical wound in Klein-Mariazell. Together they have breathed new life into an ancient cellar.
Around 1753, Abbot Jacob Pach had 200,000 (!) liters of wine from monastic vineyards stored in the magnificent vaults of Klein-Mariazell in the district of Baden. But after the Second World War, the abbey's magnificent building fell into disrepair and was converted into an unsightly truck garage.
But then heaven sent the art rescuers of the "Mariazell im Wienerwald Association" led by the idealists Franz Schuh and Dr. Thomas Aigner.

"From now on, delicious droplets can once again be enjoyed at celebrations of all kinds," enthuses Schuh.
