Rathaus Kassel, City hall in central Kassel, Germany
The Rathaus Kassel features a grand entrance with gilded Hessian lions on both sides of the outdoor staircase and the municipal coat of arms above the main portal.
Built between 1905 and 1909 on Obere Königsstrasse, the building replaced several previous city halls, including the French town hall that served from 1837 to 1909.
The interior houses a ceiling fresco titled 'Frau Holle' created by Hermann Knackfuß in 1912, representing local folklore in the main staircase area.
The municipal administration building opens Monday through Friday from 8:00 to 17:00, except Fridays when it closes at 15:00, with exhibitions in the side halls.
The building incorporates a guidance system for visually impaired visitors and maintains complete accessibility features for wheelchair users throughout its premises.
