Inhabited Beauty

For photos of beautiful, still-inhabited locales! It can be a quick snapshot of your local town, a breathtaking pro photo of a city, or a pic of some fascinating piece of modern life.

The only real rule is that it must be an actively inhabited/used location (ie not ruins or natural locales). Otherwise, go wild. Anything that you find beautiful or interesting!

I bet that costs a fortune to maintain these days. When it would have been potentially average (large and above average maybe since it still exists, but average in that it’s not a castle or something) back in the day.

This is the sort of building I would assume was an inn or something.

Built in the 1950s, I believe, just stylized to look Medieval.

Oh.

Well that’s intensely disappointing, if I’m being honest. (Part of) My house is almost 100 years older. Less cool looking, but more historic all the same. ;)

But I do see that you said “stylized” so that’s my fault for not reading properly :)

I'm pretty sure the Medieval Blacksmith Lego set is partially based on this house:

Real medieval houses (ok, maybe less white).
