Red house, Heritage building in Dornbirn, Austria.
The Red House stands at Marktplatz 13 with a distinctive red facade and decorated roof beams displaying traditional architectural elements.
Built in 1639 on the site of a former parish courtyard, this structure prevented the sale of Dornbirn to the Counts of Hohenems in 1655.
The building features four-part window groups and traditional timber construction methods that represent early modern architecture in Vorarlberg region.
Located near St. Martin parish church, the Red House sits in a pedestrian area that provides easy access to the City Museum and galleries.
The red color of the building comes from a protective coating called Ochsenblut, applied according to historical construction techniques.
