Jüterbog Pagan Temple Model This model depicts a historic Slavic stone pagan temple dedicated to the deity revered by ancient pagans for its association with downward movement. Located in Jüterbog, modern-day Germany, this sacred site was razed during the latter part of the 16th century. Outdoor settings were typical locations for Slavic pagan places of worship, which often symbolized natural phenomena, served as sites for ceremonial sacrifices, and featured statues of ancient deities. By the transition from the 10th to the 11th centuries, pagan temples became ubiquitous in Western Slavic territories. Historical records indicate that these structures were constructed not only from wood but also from stone.
