The oldest house in Antwerp.

The oldest house in Antwerp.

In a small alley in Antwerp is the oldest surviving (medieval) house in the city. It dates from 1480 and, as the small plaque next to the door says, has survived 6 wars and 500 years of urban planning. I've passed through nearby streets many times but never realised it was there until very recently.
