Oldest house

In every country, I believe each have their known oldest house or houses. I'm pretty sure Aruba has it also. Does anyone know where we could find some of it?

I think the place your looking for is Savaneta. This is actually the oldest town in the island. The old house in the place is 150 years old and it's called a cas de torto or mud hut. I wonder, do you think they would renovate these houses?

I haven't seen an old house before. I think they wouldn't renovate it because the essence of it would be lost. Are all the houses in Savaneta made from mud or clay?

I guess your right. They wouldn't renovate those houses because the value would be lost. I don't know much about these town but I believe there would be some houses made from woods, cements and others. I wonder, do you think we could still find some people who live there?:rolleyes:

Really? I never thought that houses made from mud would last for 150 years. This is very interesting. Is Savaneta located in Oranjestad? What could be the other towns in Aruba?

Of course. when you visit Aruba, try to go to the large historical property with original features set in a central position in a historical village on the Burgundy / Haute Marne border, within walking distance of all shops, schools and large nature park.
