The invention relates to a wood pellet stove, comprising a feed device for automatically adding wood pellets in a metered manner from a pellet hopper belonging to the stove. Said pellet hopper having the feed device and a grate is accommodated in a lower, stationary stove part (20), which remains cold and does not become hot during operation. The combustion chamber having a chimney connection is accommodated in an upper stove part (21). The upper stove part (21) is supported on the lower stove part (20) by means of a turntable so that the upper stove part can be swiveled relative to the lower, stationary stove part (20). Thus, the combustion chamber and the viewing window can be swiveled in any desired direction as needed.
