The unique Gothic White Tower of the Kadan Town Hall (Bílá vež radnice v Kadani), which silhouette dominates inf the town's skyline, belongs among the most valuable parts of the architectural town's heritage. Slender octagonal cone of the tower's helmet dome, a symbol of the town Kadan, is glowing a far away thanks to new white facade.

The tower, built around 1400 as a part of the Gothic Town hall, is 54 m high prismatic structure with absolutely unique stone dome in a shape of the octagonal pyramid decorated by terracota crockets* (krab** in Czech). The tower's polygonal oriel chapel is documented in 1404. This type of tower is the only one preserved in the territory of the Czech Republic.
