Haus Korbisch, Romanesque residential building in Treis-Karden, Germany

The Korbisch House stands near the Trier-Koblenz railway line, featuring a tower-like extension reaching 13.40 meters in height with a base area of 7 by 14 meters.

Built around the 10th century and modified in 1208, this structure served as a residence for the Episcopal vicar of Trier archdiocese during the medieval period.

The building contains preserved pre-Romanesque masonry elements dating back to 941 CE, with ancient window openings and remnants of early frescoes inside the walls.

Located at St.-Castor-Strasse 1 in Treis-Karden, Rhineland-Palatinate, the house maintains its original exterior appearance from the early 13th century.

This five-story structure, including a vaulted cellar and attic, represents the oldest privately owned residential building still inhabited in Germany.
