A photographer who found himself suited and booted with nowhere to go after attending a wedding took a magical detour to the world’s largest abbey library, in Austria. He walked away with a priceless series of photos and film, claiming, “It’s literally like stepping into a fairytale.”
Originally from Tel Aviv, photographer and restaurateur Nuriel Molcho made his home in Vienna. A passionate photographer, he saw his chance to capture the beauty of the library at Admont Abbey, a Benedictine monastery on the Enns River in Admont, Austria, on an unexpected visit one day.
