Rataskaevu 16
A late residential building (14th century), originally constructed in the diele-doruse system, with a courtyard wing that reached the beginning of Pikk Jalg. On the facade we can see a round arched courtyard portal. The most prominent owner of the house was a builder and a stonecutter, Gerl Koningk (1521-1532). The building was modernized during the baroque era when the residential house was joined to the gatehouse and a central pediment decorated with a stone vase was added. The house also has a romantic addition the legendary 'Window of Satan's Party' in the left corner of the upper floor where curtains are painted on the wall behind the glazing.
