Located on the northern side of the square, this Renaissance structure was built between 1554 and 1559 by the Italian master builder Giovanni de Statia. In the early 1600s, the building acquired a small tower. Between 1907 and 1912, the Town Hall was adapted and embellished with sgraffiti according to a design by the architect Koula.
