The Hafenmarkt 4-10 buildings in Esslingen am Neckar are considered to be the oldest continuous row of half-timbered houses in Germany. After the supporting posts were no longer buried in the second half of the 13th century, but rather placed as stands on stones or wall bases, the lifespan of the houses was extended to centuries.

The house at Webergasse 8 was built in 1261 and is the oldest surviving half-timbered house in Germany. A little further you will find "Am Hafenmarkt" the oldest continuous row of half-timbered houses.
