The Lock Before We Reached Linz

I do have some better photos of that pretty building seen through the lock.
I will add them later on.
If anyone knows what that building is I would appreciate being informed.
Boris has identified the building as Melk Abbey.

You caught this at the right moment for the lock gates to frame that exquisite building. V

You have photos showing different degrees of opening of the lock. Detailed and skillful way of documenting your wonderful trip. Perfect lighting you have along the way. Great frame work to present Melk Abbey. ~VVV~

a pleasing teasing...the distant structure intrigues, yet the monstrous gates provide the prime interest here..

Hi Jane, This is Melkj Abbey: I mentioned that I hoped you went there, but it doesn't seem so.

The picture shows the Greifenstein Lock on the Danube in Austria.
Through the open lock gates, Melk Abbey, a famous Benedictine abbey, can be seen in the background. Beautiful trip taken! V
