Description
'Stift Herzogenburg Nordtor - North Gate' - Photograph by Menega Sabidussi.
The driveway and North Gate of Stift Herzogenburg (in Lower Austria) offering a picturesque peek view of the countryside beyond. The gate and wall are decorated with stucco cherubs. The picture was taken in the early evening light just as a summer thunderstorm was brewing. This is an older image, I wish I could reshoot it larger but that is not possible anymore, the monastery was recently renovated and the coloring of the facade was changed from the peach and white you see here to gray and white which, while also lovely, took away alot of the warm charm of this baroque entryway.
Herzogenburg monastery, founded in 1112, was refurbished from 1714 onwards in the Baroque style by Jakob Prandtauer, Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach and Josef Munggenast.
