Kloster
Andechs is a monastery that has been brewing beer since
1455. It is located above Lake Ammersee, near Munich. Today
there is a nice beer hall there with outdoor seating for
when the weather is nice. The Andechs beers are very good.
The food there is hearty and very Bavarian: pork, pork,
and more pork.
We
drove up for lunch on Sunday, and enjoyed sitting outside
in the sun. Here are a few pictures we took that day.

The
church is very beautiful on the outside. It is being renovated
at the moment and so it's closed to visitors inside.

The
Andechs Maibaum, or May pole. Every town and village in
Bavaria has one of these May poles (or several!). They are
always painted blue and white, the colors of the sky, the
Virgin, and Bavaria itself.
