The Town Hall lies on Premysl Otakar Square. The City bought the building in 1557 and the town council moved in. It was reconstructed in 1572 and the Town Hall tower, 72 metres tall, was built over Necíz river, one of the many branches of river Morava that runs underneath the square. As the Town Hall stands above the river, it is called "highest bridge" on Morava river.
The old clock were recently renovated and new four clock faces with diameter 105 centimeters (41 inches) replaced the old ones.
