The Admont Monastery Library in Austria is the largest monastic library in the world, containing over 70’000 visible volumes ( 200’000 works in total), 1400 manuscripts, and 530 incunabula (printed works created before 1500). The floor is arranged in an ingenious geometric pattern of 7000 red, white, and grey diamond-shaped marble stones.

This “eighth wonder of the world” is only one of the spectacular places you can visit this winter with Dixie Dillon Lane and Kristin Haakenson. Having travelled with Dixie on the Camino last summer, I can highly recommend these pilgrimage tours!
