I grew up near a church built in the 11th century, for example. The interior is newer but the building itself is original.
My own family inherited things from cca 16th-17th century (useless junk but anyways).

My country got plundered, conquered, and colonized; they took away everything they could possibly take away. Some of those objects are in some European museums and palaces ;) (Don't take this the wrong way. I'm not blaming anybody. What has happened has happened.)
- Huh1337 4y agoWell, same here, most of the oldest artefacts are away. Europe is a big place, your fate is shared even here. But even the stuff that remains at home is interesting - just doesn't have so much gold on it.
