St. Peter's Abbey: Catacombs, Ancient Graveyards & Film Locations
★4.9(861)
Head straight for the cemetery (Petersfriedhof) to see the wrought-iron crosses and rock-cut catacombs that inspired 'The Sound of Music.' It is one of the oldest active monasteries in the German-speaking world, but the real draw is the eerie, aesthetic atmosphere of the burial grounds. Spend 45 minutes exploring the chapels before grabbing a sourdough loaf from the nearby 12th-century watermill bakery. Avoid the midday crowds; early morning light makes the mountain backdrop look surreal.
