The Town Hall in Doksy is located in the southwestern corner of today's Republic Square (Námestí Republiky). The original old wooden Town hall built at the beginning of the 17th century was burnt down during a great fire in 1750. Vincent count of Wallenstein, owner of Doksy demesne, then built a stone building and donated it to the village as a Town hall. After the fire in May 1842, only the walls of the Town hall remained as the roof burned down and the ceilings collapsed. The town hall was not restored until 1852-1863, when it was rebuilt in Classicist style. During this principal reconstruction was also added clocktower.
