Engelberg’s Benedictine monastery, framed dramatically by the glaciers of Mt. Titlis, Switzerland’s tallest mountain, helps create the appropriate tone for a place literally translated to ‘Angel Mountain’. The 12th Century abbey once ruled over the surrounding valley, but these days its monks are more teachers, and some of them are all about teaching state-of-the-art cheesemaking techniques - there’s a cheese dairy onsite.
