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.

First or second century for the Roman baths. They’re not in a great state though.
The first Roman fort on the site of the castle was likely built around 55AD.

It was built in the 1820s
I grew up in the Western US, so I’m a big… fan of this underwhelming 1820s business.
The oldest building in Vienna is believed to be the Roman stone quarry in Leithaprodersdorf. It dates back to the Roman era, around 43 AD.
I actually don’t know. The area I now live in was partially wiped out by the tsunami in 2011 closer to the coast. We definitely have some buildings that are a few hundred years old that are still in use. Different parts of Japan have older, but it’s almost always a Ship of Theseus sort of situation.
Spanish mission church 1782
An old church going back to the early 1800s, though that’s misleading.
The old part of the church is still there, but it’s been updated and expanded over the years so that the foundation under one part is all that’s original now.
It was built in the early 12th century.
142 years.
Interesting that it was moved to a different lot in 1986.
And looks like any other house, just with fancy window frames.
I like that you figured out the city I was referring to. Not that I made it that hard.
There’s some debate on the age of the old parish church where I live. It was either built on the 7th century or 1078
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 used to live in Regensburg, one of the northernmost Roman garrisons. So, the oldest remaining building (stone wall) is almost 2000 years old.
I live in a young city, so its from 1407.
The oldest building would be the cathedral built between 1628 and 1633 although the city walls were built between 1613-1618 and are still standing and complete
