Hamburg City Hall, Renaissance heritage building in Hamburg-Altstadt, Germany.
The Hamburg City Hall extends over 133 meters in width and reaches a height of 112 meters, featuring elaborate stone carvings across its facade and a copper-clad roof.
Construction of the sixth city hall began in 1886, requiring 4,000 wooden poles driven into the ground near Alster Lake to support its substantial foundation.
The building contains 647 rooms decorated with intricate Neo-Renaissance details, serving as the meeting place for Hamburg's parliament and senate.
Guided tours of the Hamburg City Hall operate daily between 8:00 and 18:00, allowing visitors to explore the grand ceremonial halls and legislative chambers.
The Hygieia fountain in the courtyard commemorates the 1892 cholera epidemic and connects to both the Chamber of Commerce and Stock Exchange through dedicated passages.
