Jacobstein, Wine garden pavilion in Radebeul, Germany.

The circular Jacobstein pavilion features three windows, a massive dome roof, and stands on a rock outcrop at 180 meters above sea level.

Dresden master potter Jacob Krause constructed the Jacobstein in 1742 as a storage and accommodation structure overlooking his vineyard property, Haus Fliegenwedel.

The pavilion houses a 1.8-meter statue of Bacchus on its dome, replaced in 1953 by sculptor Werner Hempel's reproduction of the original figure.

A 210-meter wine path connects the Jacobstein to the Belvedere of Schloss Wackerbarth, offering views from Sächsische Schweiz to Meißen.

The structure includes a cellar and surrounding walls with openings designed for cannons, reflecting its defensive capabilities alongside its agricultural purpose.
