Leopoldinentempel, Neoclassical temple in Schloss Esterhazy Park, Eisenstadt, Austria.

The round temple features 19 columns with palmette capitals surrounding a central space covered by a flat dome with painted coffered ceiling.

Between 1818 and 1819, architect Charles Moreau designed this temple to honor Princess Leopoldine Esterhazy above a grotto and cascade system.

The temple houses a replica of Antonio Canova's statue of Princess Leopoldine, representing the influence of the Esterhazy family in Austrian nobility.

The temple stands accessible through multiple entrances along Joseph Haydn-Gasse and Bergstrasse, offering year-round visits to the public without entrance fees.

The temple's position above an artificial pond creates a calculated visual connection with Esterhazy Palace through carefully planned landscape architecture.
