Charleroi City Hall, Art Deco town hall in Charleroi, Belgium.
Charleroi City Hall is an eclectic building in the Art Deco style that stretches approximately 240 meters across Place Charles II. The facade features seven large windows separated by columns, ornamental upper sections, and three substantial bronze doors that open to a marble-lined hall of honor.
The building rose after World War I as part of the city's renewal efforts and was completed in 1936. Its construction coincided with a period of industrial growth and became a symbol of recovery for Charleroi.
The building honors Jules Destrée, a key Walloon writer and politician whose legacy is woven into its spaces. The regional collection in the upper floors displays works and documents that speak to the area's industrial past.
The city hall sits at central Place Charles II and is open Monday through Friday from 09:00 to 17:00. The entrance is fully wheelchair accessible and the building offers comfortable facilities for visitors of all mobility levels.
Two sculptures flanking the central bas-relief represent Administration and Family, lending symbolic weight to the entrance area. These figures show the values the city wanted to embody as it rebuilt after war.
