Dominantou Masarykova námestí je renesancní radnice s radnicní veží, postavená v roce 1569. V prízemí jsou dodnes zachovány zbytky renesancního podloubí, za pozornost stojí renesancní intarsované dvere a štuková dekorativní výzdoba z 18. století.
Soucasná podoba veže vznikla až po druhé svetové válce. K budove priléhá úzká ulicka, preklenutá rozpernými oblouky, tzv. prampouchy.
