The building was initially constructed as a patrician house, representing the wealth and status of Aachen’s prominent citizens. Over time, it has served various purposes, including functioning as a public space for meetings and official events.
Its Gothic façade, with pointed arches and decorative elements, reflects the architectural style of the period and stands as a reminder of Aachen’s importance during the Middle Ages. And although the interior has been modernized over the years, Haus Löwenstein still retains much of its medieval character.
