Scheyern Abbey 


During WW II, when German cities became unsafe, the Thesaurus linguae Latinae archives were for the most part evacuated to the Benedictine Abbey of Scheyern.
(Even) more interestingly, some part must have been brought to Icking, 25km south of Munich. After we had moved to that village, our then Managing Director told me that. I still have to dig up the evidence.

This is an intriguing view. The path leads the eye towards the buildings and the sky is just... perfect :-)

Thank you, Nigel! Yes, it’s one of my famous postcard shots! ;-)
If you ask me, my main accomplishment was that I showed the most important part of the building without making it too evident that the church tower was scaffolded.

Thank you, Sara!
Oh yes, I did look at it. ;-) The trouble was that there was a mass going on in the church, so we couldn’t see as much as we’d have liked, and left the scene with mixed feelings. But what we could see was nice enough!
