Built 1867 - 1909 in Flanders Gothic style; its facade, over 300 feet in length, features strikingly elaborate stone ornamentation. Its 260-foot tower with carillon is, with St. Peter's Church and the twin towers of the Cathedral, one of the most distinctive features of the city's skyline.
Although this "New Town Hall" looks older than the "Old Town Hall" (it was rebuilt in 1971 til 1974), it IS the "New Town Hall" where the town council and the mayor of Munich are residing.
