Mondsee Castle was and is a lot. Founded as a monastery, it was converted into a castle, today it is a museum and hotel, but also still a church worth seeing. Definitely worth a visit. If you want to learn more about the history, visit the monastery museum, which is part of the Mondsee local history museum.

The former Benedictine monastery was founded in 748 by the Bavarian Duke Odilo and dissolved in the course of the Josephine church reform in 1791. In 1809, Emperor Napoleon handed over the monastery building and its goods to the Bavarian Field Marshal Carl Philipp von Wrede, who converted it into a castle.
