Goldenes Kreuz, Medieval patrician tower at Haidplatz, Regensburg, Germany

The Goldenes Kreuz building rises five stories high with a steep gable roof and battlements that create the appearance of a patrician castle.

Between 1521 and 1527, the structure expanded with a three-story addition marked by the alliance coat of arms of Hans Thuner and Ursula Fugger.

Emperor Charles V regularly stayed at Goldenes Kreuz during imperial assemblies, and his connection to Barbara Blomberg is commemorated with an inscription.

The building now functions as Hotel Goldenes Kreuz, offering nine rooms named after royal figures, with breakfast served in a former chapel.

The structure contains architectural elements from multiple centuries, including Gothic features and a chapel dedicated to Saint Leonard.
