Bastion Sakwowy (English: Saddlebag Bastion; German: Taschenbastion), formerly known as Partisans' Hill (1948–2024, Polish: Wzgórze Partyzantów), is a fragment of the former city fortifications and an elevated pavilion in Wrocław, Poland. Situated on the south-east corner of Old Town, at the moat, it is a small mound topped by an architectural belvedere compound from 1867 and a fountain that overlooks the nearby surroundings.
