Goliathhaus, Gothic building in central Regensburg, Germany.

The Goliathhaus features a large fresco on its facade depicting the biblical confrontation between David and Goliath, painted in bright colors.

Built in the 13th century as a residential tower, the building served as the ancestral seat of the Thundorfer patrician family until 1290.

The Turmtheater Regensburg, located within the Goliathhaus, presents theatrical performances that enrich the local arts programming.

Guided tours of the Goliathhaus operate daily, allowing visitors to examine the architectural details and learn about the structure's medieval origins.

A small green frog with a mustache and spurs, added to the fresco in 1841, references Baron Anton von Quentel in a humorous manner.
