Über dem Tor des Stifts Neukloster nahe dem Neuklosterplatz ist ein schönes Chronogramm zu sehen, das in den ersten beiden Zeilen das Jahr 1700 enthält und noch einmal in der dritten Zeile:

Die Buchstaben des Chronogramms sind rot gefärbt und größer als die anderen und der Text lautet übersetzt: "Alexander Standhartner, Abt dieses Klosters, hat es neu errichtet und einem großen Gott geweiht".

Alexander Standhartner, der hier von 1683 - 1707 Abt war, ließ das Stift innen und außen umfangreich umbauen.
