Klangraum Krems Minoritenkirche

The Minorite Church in Krems-Stein is one of the oldest mendicant churches north of the Alps. The monastery was allegedly founded in 1224, during the lifetime of the order's father Francis of Assisi (1181/82-1226). Today, the secularised church is used as an impressive venue for a variety of festivals. The European Literature Days are held here every year.
