Altenburg Abbey, located in Austria, is a Benedictine Abbey known for its beautiful crypt. Unlike typical crypts, this one is bright and adorned with art by Paul Schroeger. The Abbey features areas like the marble room, library, and Chapel. The crypt's frescoes depict skeletons and Roman gods, blending cheer with themes of death.
