L'horloge sur le fronton de la mairie s'inspire de l'Art déco. La structure est en fer forgé noir avec des chiffres arabes dorés et des aiguilles blanches avec, comme fond, un appareillage de briques.
 

La mairie a été reconstruite après la guerre 14-18 par Gaston Claudon.
La façade de style art déco comporte de nombreux symboles de la franc-maçonnerie. La place refaite en 1993 présente également d'autres symboles de cette confrérie.

The clock on the pediment of the town hall is inspired by Art Deco. The structure is made of black wrought iron with gilded Arabic numerals and white hands with a brick apparatus as the background.

The town hall was rebuilt after the First World War by Gaston Claudon.
The Art Deco-style facade contains many symbols of Freemasonry. The square redone in 1993 also presents other symbols of this brotherhood.
