Check website for last entry times. It was surprisingly early so I didn't go in. Good free parking, suitable for taking the bus into Brixen. Neustift Abbey is 3 km north of Brixen, sited far enough away from the town but well-placed for sheltering pilgrims and travelers on the route through the Alps from Italy to Austria. Founded in 1140, the monastery is a fortified complex accessed via a covered bridge.

Visited on the way to Brunico. Amazing to shop local wine, honey and jam.

For sure a worthwhile place to visit. The grounds are beautiful and so peaceful. To enter the Abby and the gardens is a ticket. The wine shop, church and cemetery as well as the courtyard you can go into. The wines are some of the oldest in Italy and have a great tasting area where you can try a few ounces at a time. The staff were so friendly and helpful as well.

Had a beer and a glass of wine in the cantina. Everything ok. It can be a bit noisy with the acoustics. We were there during a holiday period so many families traveling with children. The sausages cheese and bread are rustic and authentic. The fresh baked breads amazing. Dine on patio or indoors like we did. Ordering was fast and food arrived quickly from the limited apperitivo menu. Don't come for a meal but just sone tasty local cheese and cured meat platters. Walk the grounds and take in the history.

A must visit if you are in town or nearby. The decoration of the church are overwhelmingly elaborate while the atmosphere on the monastery grounds is divine and peaceful. The wines are delicious and our guide (Roberta) was very charming and very knowledgeable.
