We show that the space of observables of test particles carries a natural Jacobi structure which is manifestly invariant under the action of the Poincar\'{e} group. Poisson algebras may be obtained by imposing further requirements. A generalization of Peierls procedure is used to extend this Jacobi bracket on the space of time-like geodesics on Minkowski space-time.
