> With nearly 700 years of history, *L'Eschif* in Périgueux, France, has remained perched on a narrow wall since its construction in 1347. > Originally used as a watchpoint for a toll bridge, this oak and timber-framed building with plaster infill rests on the walls of *Puy-Saint-Front*, the ancient medieval center of the city. > Its sturdy oak beams support the structure along its length, standing out as an exceptional example of medieval architecture that has withstood the test of time.
