The Jochhöhschlösschen stands in the Pesterwitz district of Freital, in Saxony. This small baroque mansion was built in the late 18th century as a vintner's house, set within a vineyard that no longer exists. Its two-storey central block, flanked by two lower wings and two entrance pavilions, served various purposes over time, including as a seigneurial residence and later a retirement home, before being converted into private flats. Today the building can only be viewed from the outside, as it now houses private apartments.
