Capella Speciosa, Gothic church building in Klosterneuburg, Austria.
The chapel features a single-nave, two-bay hall with a polygonal apse decorated with red and white marble along its walls.
Duke Leopold VI initiated the construction around 1198 as part of his palace complex, and Burgundian craftsmen completed the chapel by 1222.
The structure represents early Gothic architectural elements in Austria, incorporating design principles from French cathedral construction methods of the medieval period.
The foundation remains of Capella Speciosa are located at Stiftsplatz 7 and opened to public viewing following excavations in 2006.
Several original elements, including the Gothic sandstone pulpit and stained glass windows, now reside in different Austrian churches and museums.
