Waldviertel Pyramid, Stone monument in Waldviertel, Austria
The pyramid rises 7 meters high with four circular layers of natural stones, measuring 14 meters in diameter at its base.
The structure received official monument status in 2001, though its exact construction date and original purpose remain undetermined through archaeological studies.
Located near Rosenau Castle, the pyramid connects to regional Masonic history through Leopold Christoph, who established a lodge there in 1747.
The monument stands in the forest between Zwettl and Gross-Gerungs, with remnants of walls nearby indicating a former larger complex.
This stone structure represents the only recorded pyramid formation of its architectural style in Central Europe.
