Millstatt - Abbey Church

Of interest in Millstatt is the former Benedictine abbey founded in 1070 and in particular its Romanesque church, a three aisled pillared basilica with a recessed doorway (c. 1170) and two high towers. In the porch can be seen a beautiful Romanesque funnel shaped doorway. The choir and vaulting are Gothic, the altars Baroque. The fresco of the Last Judgment by Urban Görtschacher (1513-19) is one of the masterpieces of Austrian Renaissance art.
