Wonderful Sunday Lunch. Highly recommend the beef and onions. Absolutely delicious - real comfort food. We saw a lot of other dishes and they all looked really good. We also shared the desert Kaiserschmarrm which was the best we have had in Salzburg. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was warm and relaxing. I would highly recommend this gorgeous restaurant ?

The famous restaurant very well known for its traditional Austrian style cooked beef was again a good experience. The service was polite, quick and competent without airs and graces. You fell very comfortable in the dignified atmosphere. All food was superb. I enjoyed this extraordinary lunch break very delighted.

Abbey of Saint-Georges

Saint-Georges de Boscherville Abbey is a former Benedictine abbey. It was founded in about 1113 by Guillaume de Tancarville on the site of an earlier establishment of secular canons and settled by monks from the Abbey of Saint-Evroul. The abbey church made of Caumont stone was erected from 1113 to 1140. The Norman builders aimed to have very well-lit naves and they did this by means of tall, large windows, initially made possible by a wooden ceiling, which prevented uplift, although this was replaced by a Gothic vault in the 13th century. The chapter room was built after the abbey church and dates from the last quarter of the 12th century.

The arrival of the Maurist monks in 1659, after the disasters of the Wars of Religion, helped to get the abbey back on a firmer spiritual, architectural and economic footing. They erected a large monastic building one wing of which fitted tightly around the chapter house (which was otherwise left as it was).
