The centrepiece is the baroque tabernacle structure, which was transferred here from Premst\u00e4tten Castle in 1980. Above it is an altarpiece depicting St Benedict of Nursia and Baroque sculptures of angels. In the apse, the high-quality statues of St John the Baptist (patron saint of the church) and St John the Evangelist, dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century, also stand on consoles. They come from the Frauenberg parish church and were only brought to Ardning in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Stations of the Cross are the work of Benedictine nun Basilia G\u00fcrth OSB. The neo-baroque celebration altar and ambo (both created around 1980) originally came from the parish church in Bad Zell (Upper Austria) and were donated to Ardning in 2019.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                    \n                            <\/div>\n        \n                                                    <div class=\"content__box content__box--2\"\n                     >\n                                        \n                    \n                                                <div class=\"content__media stickyTo\" x-init=\"imageSticky($el)\">\n\n                                                                                    <picture\n                                    class=\"content__image sticky\">\n                                <source srcset=\"https:\/\/stiftadmont.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ardning-6-1024x583.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\">\n                                <source srcset=\"https:\/\/stiftadmont.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ardning-6-1024x583.jpg\" type=\"image\/jpeg\">\n                                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sticky\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/stiftadmont.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ardning-6-1024x583.png\" alt=\"Ardning\" \/>\n\n                                                                                                                            <\/picture>\n\n                        <\/div>\n\n                                    <\/div>\n            \n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":39544,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"class_list":["post-39564","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v26.8) -
