The construction of the local houses is dated by the authors to the period around the mid-13th century. Due to the intensive business contacts between Prague and Regensburg merchants, the inspiration for building houses with a tower is sought in the environment of the Holy Roman Empire city of Regensburg. The most intensive trade contacts between the two cities took place during the 13th and the first half of the 14th century.
