We proceed on into the narrow alleyway between the new Römerberg settlement and the Stone House (Steinernes Haus, on the right). The bold-looking house made of ‘steynen and muwren’ (stones and walls), as contemporaries note appreciatively, was built in 1464. The old trading house is one of the few preserved Gothic profane buildings that were designed like royal residences or castles.
