Niederalteich (often also written Niederaltaich) is primarily known for its historic Benedictine Abbey of St. Mauritius. The special feature there is that there are not just one, but practically "two worlds" under one roof. It is the widely visible landmark with its two characteristic towers. Originally a Gothic hall church (13th century), it was magnificently Baroque-ized in the 18th century under Abbot Joscio Hamberger. The Gothic foundations were retained, giving the church a special sense of spaciousness.
