About Schottenstift
The Schottenstift, formally called Benediktinerabtei unserer Lieben Frau zu den Schotten, is a Roman Catholic monastery founded in Vienna in 1155 when Henry II of Austria brought Irish monks to Vienna. The monks did not come directly from Ireland, but came instead from Scots Monastery in Regensburg, Germany.
