Sopron - Fabricius House
Behind the Baroque façade of the Fabricius House (near the General's House) is hidden a complex of houses from the 14/15th C, built on Roman foundations; part of the town wall is actually incorporated into the building. There is a striking oriel window two storys high on the façade (18th C); the courtyard has two-story arcades and Tuscan columns (17th C). The reverse side of the town wall dates from the first half of the 14th C, its stone façade (visible from the town wall) has two pointed and two straight Gothic windows with tracery.
