Well worth a visit - especially if you have a Brixen card as this gives free entry. Sadly tours in the afternoon are only in German or Italian but even so they are worth doing as this allows you acces... more »

Bellissimo posto, dove il connubio vino e cultura è meravigliosamente presente. Bella la visita dei cortili, della chiesa e, se si riesce, del museo. more »

Beautiful place, where the combination of wine and culture is wonderfully present. Beautiful the visit of the courtyards, the Church and, if you can, the Museum.

Gorgeous Augustinian complex of religious buildings and not founded in 1100 and enlarged later. Remarkable its library containing 65000 volumes with books dating back to the building, and the Museum that contains interesting religious objects but not only very nice is also the basilica rebuilt almost entirely in the eighteenth century. Is a typical example of Alpine and Bavarian Baroque we also purchased the white wine that produces the Abbey itself worthy of the best South Tyrolean tradition

Lovely place where it's easy to arrive, this is a must see in the area ! Nice church, so curious the monks graveyard. It's beautiful the internal court with the nice fountain and it's fresco, and is wonderful the big courtyard. Here you can relax and take some pictures. It's possible to eat something at the restaurant (would say a little overpriced, and would be hated probably by who remember or think to find something like the old cellar. Don't expect it.). It's even possible to buy something at the shop outside the wall. Big free parking and very clean toilet. I haven't tried the tour that could be bought on site.

L'abbazia di Novacella, un tempo grande insediamento monastico, è luogo di grandissimo interesse per la sue valenze culturali e artistiche tramandate da secoli a tutt'oggi dai monaci Agostiniani. Particolarmente significative in questo contesto sono da visitare la chiesa e la biblioteca. Oltre ad essere importante luogo di richiamo turistico, nell'abbazia si svolgono molteplici attività culturali e vitivinicole con produzione di ottimi vini.

The Abbey of Novacella, once great monastic settlement, is a place of great interest for its cultural and artistic values handed down for centuries to date by the Augustinian monks. Particularly significant in this context are to visit the Church and the library. Besides being an important tourist attraction, the Abbey held many cultural activities and wineries producing wines.

Il complesso dell'Abbazia di Novacella risulta imponente ed affascinante, con costruzioni agostiniane. L'interno delle strutture è molto curato, la biblioteca lascia senza fiato, per non parlare dell'interno della basilica: affreschi, pitture e quadri stupendi colorano tutte le superfici, dalle colonne ai soffitti! Anche il cimitero è molto caratteristico. La pianta che cresce su un'intera facciata poi dona un tocco di romanticismo quasi inaspettato. Visita assai consigliata!

The complex of the Abbey of Neustift is impressive and fascinating, with Augustinian constructions. The Interior of structures is beautifully maintained, the library takes your breath away, not to mention the Interior of the basilica: frescoes, paintings and paintings beautiful color all surfaces, from columns to ceiling! The cemetery is very quaint. Plant growing out of an entire façade then gives a touch of romance almost unexpected. Visit highly recommended!

Il nuovo stile della cantina e della Stube è asettico e respingente. Personale poco disponibile. Una delusione rispetto alle visite degli anni scorsi. Peccato

The new style of the winery and the Stube is aseptic and bumper. Staff unhelpful. A disappointment compared to the visits of the last years. Too bad
