Tucked back behind the castle was an ancient city street, called Golden Street, so named for 16th century alchemists who had to look there (according to tradition) for a reaction to produce gold. The houses were tiny and colored. I am 5'6" and had to duck to go inside. They were beautifully preserved and filled with time-accurate furnishings. I really enjoyed seeing them. This bedspread with his long fringe coated in wax reminded me of something I've seen in my mom's attic!
A toilet!
This one was the herbalist's home.
