The Dreikönigenhaus (House of the Three Magi) on Trier’s Simeonstraße, was originally built in 1230 as a Romanesque tower house (Wohnturm), but has undergone many changes in the centuries since then. Today it is an apartment house with a café on the ground floor. The building’s name is said to come from a painting that once graced the interior.
