dragon statue on Dragon House in Park Sanssouci

The Dragon House is located in the northern part of Park Sanssouci, on the Klausberg. The house owes its name to the sixteen dragons placed on its roofs. It was built between 1770 and 1772 by Carl von Gontard when Frederick the Great had a great interest in Chinoiserie park structures. Since 1934 the Dragon House accomodates a restaurant and a cafe.
