Sambir town hall, Renaissance town hall in Sambir, Ukraine
Description
Sambir town hall is a Renaissance building with a prominent tower rising above the market square. The tower features a clock mechanism installed in 1885 by Prague craftsman Heinz.
History
The original wooden town hall was built in 1390 but was replaced by a stone structure in 1580. That building burned down, leading to the current structure being completed in 1670.
Culture
This building stands at the heart of the market square and remains central to community life. Visitors can observe how the town hall continues to anchor civic identity and local governance in daily practice.
