the abbey operates both a college and a<br />
nursing home for the elderly. The main<br />
abbey is considered a unique monument<br />
by the more than one hundred thousand<br />
visitors that seek it out every year. The<br />
basilica with its classical towers is a<br />
popular place for young couples to have<br />
weddings. To the left of the basilica is<br />
the library, which besides books is also<br />
decorated with stunning frescoes and<br />
sculptures. Devotees of St. Benedict<br />
obey the Benectine rule of supporting<br />
themselves not from donations, but by<br />
their own labor. The Pannonhalma<br />
Abbey is successful both abroad and<br />
at home, and markets premium products.<br />
The herbal tea recipes are three<br />
hundred years old, their soaps are made<br />
from lavender they grow themselves.<br />
