The showroom of COLONEUM Antik is located at the Watmarkt 3, right in the heart of Regensburg’s old town. The Gothic Cathedral of Saint Peter and the Stone Bridge are only 200 meters away. The showroom is located behind the Goliath house and above L’Osteria.
In the main building at Watmarkt 3 you will also find the PALAZZO AM DOM holiday apartment with up to 6 beds and a view over the roofs of the city.
The COLONEUM extends over two buildings at Watmarkt 3 and 5 in the city’s antique district. Cloths used to be traded at the Watmarkt. Above the entrance of the Art Nouveau house from 1902 there is a bay window with a patrician couple sculpted in stone, which shows the rich history of the medieval town. “The master of the house stretches out the family’s trading book to the viewer, the lady holds a flower in her hand.” (Mittelbayerische Zeitung, February 7, 2023)
In the Middle Ages, the house of Margarete Runtinger’s merchant family stood on the site of the current showroom house.
“In 1902 the medieval Betzingerhaus (Watmarkt 3 / F21), which was adjacent to the Goliathhaus to the west, was demolished. A new building was built, whereby the south facade on the Watmarkt was partially preserved. There, instead of a baroque oriel, a two-storey oriel in the Neo-Renaissance style was built. On the parapet on the 1st floor, two fully sculpted half figures in patrician clothing.” (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altstadt_von_Regensburg_mit_Stadtamhof)
