Lonely Planet review

The Burgkapelle (Royal Chapel) dates from the 13th century and received a Gothic make-over from 1447 to 1449, but much of this disappeared during the baroque fad. The vaulted wooden statutory survived and is a testament to those Gothic days. This is where the Vienna Boys' Choir sings at Mass each Sunday at between September and June. Unfortunately, you can only visit the chapel with a tour guide or during choir performances.
