Town hall of Nîmes, Administrative building in central Nîmes, France.

The municipal structure displays a forty-five meter facade combining Gothic and Renaissance architectural elements with ground floor arcades.

The initial 14th-century Royal Treasury building was converted into a town hall between 1700 and 1703 following architect Augustin-Charles d'Aviler's designs.

The building displays four preserved crocodiles above its main staircase, referencing the settlement of Roman legion veterans from Egypt in Nîmes.

Municipal services welcome the public in this central Nîmes building, accessible from Place de l'Hôtel de ville and Rue de la Trésorerie.

The wrought iron railing of the main staircase, created in 1851, represents a notable example of 19th-century craftsmanship.
