A Venetian Renaissance building that stands out from the typical Alsatian architecture in Colmar.
Little Venice is not called like that for nothing. This astonishing (and surprising here!) building of Venetian Renaissance style deserves to be stopped there; it is different from the typically Alsatian architecture of the other monuments of Colmar. Built in 1608 by the architect Albert Schmidt, it was destroyed in the 19th century and rebuilt identically. Its facade and its roof are classified as historical monuments. Its gallery of arcades is simply sublime.

Google maps had me all turned around! It's not the main street, go around the block to view.

Неожиданно увидеть во французско-немецком Кольмаре венецианский дворец. Он явно выделяется среди соседних построек. Дом имеет двухэтажную арочную галерею с каменной баллюстрадой, которая соединяет два здания. Одна стороны дома выходит на дорогу, другая — во внутренний дворик. Здание было построено в 1608 году архитектором Альбертом Шмидтом, который также известен как автор «дома голов» и «дома аркад». В 19 веке дом был реконструирован. Здание известно как Дом рыцарей св. Иоанна, хотя на самом деле оно никогда не принадлежало иоаннитам, так что название не соответствует действительности. Май 2022.

The rigorous symmetry, adorned with three galleries, two of which are arcaded dating from 1608, of the façade of the House of the Knights of Saint John, is reminiscent of a Venetian palazzo.
Saint John Knights had their houses in the Netherlands, Malta Jerusalem and Sweden. At one point they colonised some Caribbean Islands that they later handed over to France.
Their history is spreads several history and several disputed historic claims are made from current Orders of Saint John over the world.

Sollte man sich anschauen, da es definitiv interessant aussieht. Historisch ist aber eigentlich nur der Gedanke hinter dem eher neuzeitlichen Gebäude aus dem 19. Jahrhundert.
