Eberbach
Eberbach Abbey is a Cistercian Monastery, best known as the filming location for the Sean Connery movie: "The Name of the Rose".
We arrived after dark and were given candles (LED not real) to carry around, so as to add to the ambience. First we headed to the wine cellars for a tasting of 3 of the local wines.
After the wine cellars we visited the dormitories, chapter house, church and the wine press room. \The Cistercians didn't believe in heating their monasteries - so it was pretty cold.
