"Valuable grass house" - The monument through the ages

In the course of its almost 800-year history, the building, which was originally the first town hall in Aachen, has already seen many different uses, which are hidden behind various conversions, extensions and new buildings. The architectural history tour at 11.00 a.m. traces the path from the city's first town hall to the "Station Europa" and the "European Classroom" of the Route Charlemagne.

The Grashaus is one of Aachen's most important and valuable architectural monuments. However, it is difficult to assign it to a specific era, as different uses, conversions and restorations overlap. In the past, however, significant parts of the building have been restored, repaired or completely replaced. The guided tour at 2 p.m. poses the question: Is it also "irreplaceable"?
