Waidhaus, Historical school building near St Peter's Church in Görlitz, Germany
The Waidhaus stands as the oldest non-religious structure in Görlitz, featuring substantial stone walls and multiple architectural elements from different periods.
Originally constructed in the 12th century as part of a noble's courtyard, the building transformed into a school from 1447 to 1529 before becoming a storage facility.
The structure contains over 50 stonemason marks discovered in 1908, revealing connections to the construction of St Peter and Paul Church.
Located at Bei der Peterskirche 8 in Görlitz, the building currently functions as a training center for heritage preservation under German monument protection.
The northern gable preserves an inscription from 1479 commemorating a significant fire that affected the structure during that period.
