To those from the Western hemisphere, it’s always fascinating to hear that some homes and businesses from the times of the Greek philosophers still have inhabitants, and then you remember that the Western hemisphere is itself not without its own examples, for example some Mexican villages still have temples from the times of the Mayans.
I live around the Yorkshire moors. There are dry stone walls up there which are up to 600 years old. I love walking up in the hills and thinking about that.

1130, St Margarets Chapel.
Surprise surprise, it’s a church. Riddarholmen Church built in the 13th century.
Had to look it up, but “most probably” built between AD 1000–1050. Love that it’s old enough that we’re not entirely sure…
The oldest building near where I live was believed to be built in 1640.
The student dorm I lived in was built as a monastery in 1491.
My current home town still has a guard tower built by the Romans.I believe the first building here was contracted around 1920-40
We have a church in Berlin that was built in 1220-1230
I think the oldest building would be the castle that eas first officially mentioned in 1004 AD and the first parts of the castle were built way before that.
Smederevo Fortress - 1428.
