The grand finale of the terraced complex is a round Greek temple containing a larger-than-life marble figure of Venus flanked by two cupids. In earlier plans, this location was intended for a theater building.

The Greek round temple shows a larger-than-life marble figure of Venus, accompanied by two cupids. The view of the castle and the surrounding area from here is great.
