New special stamp 950 years of Admont Abbey

Österreichische Post AG joins in the celebrations: New special-issue stamp "950 years of Admont Abbey"

To mark the 950th anniversary of its foundation, Österreichische Post AG will issue a new special stamp on 27 June 2024 showing the most famous room in Admont Abbey: The largest monastic library hall in the world, which was completed in 1776 in the spirit of late Baroque. With a face value of 190 cents, you can send greetings cards all over the world!

On Hemmatag, 27 June 2024, the new special postage stamp will be ceremoniously presented following the festive mass, which begins at 10.45 a.m. in the collegiate church, celebrated by the Bishop of Carinthia (approx. 12 noon). On this day, the special post office of Österreichische Post AG will be operating in front of the gates of the collegiate church from 10 am to 4 pm, where the special postmark with the collegiate coat of arms will be cancelled. The Austrian St Gabriel Philatelic Society will be setting up a small stamp exhibition and issuing commemorative covers for the first day of the new special stamp and for Hemmatag 2024!
