Austria: Gloggnitz Castle

On 14th June I got three postcards from Austria.

One of them shows the Gloggnitz Castle in Lower Austria. Although this building is now known as Schloss or castle is was actually a Benedictine monastery. Parts of it date back to the 11th century. 

The main stamp (issued 05-06-2021) used here is from the Austrian series about wine regions, the Thermenregion in Lower Austria in particular. Two definitives were used to reach the correct postage and all three stamps were cancelled with the First Day Special Postmark of the wine stamp.


Thank You very much Anita!
