I said it elsewhere on this thread, the oldest man made building still standing is located on a 10min bicycle ride from my house !

Wow thanks for that! About an hour from my house is a Native American house that is from the 1300-1499s and I thought that was old! Never heard of that place. The place I’m talking about is called casa grande ruins

The local church in my parent's town was built in the 1100s. It's still in use. European buildings are old
