Was the movie "In the Name of the Rose" filmed at the Fossanova Abbey?

I recently read an Italian tour company's website that mentioned that scenes from Umberto Eco's "In the Name of the Rose" were filmed in and around the Fossanova Abbey. I would love to find out if this is true. Umberto Eco happens to be my favorite author.

I am sorry to disappoint you, but I read that the filming location was 'Kloster Eberbach' in Germany. Might be wrong, of course...
