20 years after construction began, the Karlsruhe Town Hall was completed in 1825 according to plans by Friedrich Weinbrenner. The two large-scale classical buildings facing each other, the Protestant city church and the town hall, significantly define the overall impression of the market square.
The result was a three-storey building with three inner courtyards. Originally, the building was also used for the town's economy, housing the meat bank, the grain and flour hall and the salt hall. Rooms in the tower were used as a prison. After the town hall was destroyed in the Second World War, the historic market square wing was restored and the interior of the building was redesigned.
The republic was proclaimed from the town hall balcony on May 14, 1849.Source: DZT Knowledge GraphScan the code to view this page on your smartphone or tablet.
