Cork City Hall, City council building in Cork, Ireland
Cork City Hall stands on the banks of the River Lee, featuring a prominent clock tower and classical architectural elements from the 1930s.
The current Cork City Hall, completed in 1936, replaced the previous building that British forces destroyed during the Burning of Cork in 1920.
The council chamber within Cork City Hall displays intricate mosaics of the city arms and hosts regular municipal gatherings for local governance.
Visitors can explore the grand staircase, council chamber, and administrative offices through guided tours available during standard business hours.
The building's foundation stone was laid by Éamon de Valera in 1932, using funds from the British government as a reconciliation gesture.
