Old City Hall, Historic municipal building near Stroget, Denmark

The Copenhagen City Hall occupies a full city block with red brick construction and features a 105-meter clock tower visible across the city center.

Construction of the municipal headquarters began in 1892 under architect Martin Nyrop, who incorporated design elements from the Siena City Hall in Italy.

The building interior displays traditional Danish craftsmanship through detailed woodwork, granite from Bornholm, and decorative elements representing local flora and fauna.

Guided tours provide access to the Municipal Council Hall, Celebration Hall, and tower, with entrance through the main doors at Radhuspladsen 1.

The Jens Olsen World Clock inside contains 14,448 parts and displays solar time, planetary movements, and astronomical calculations with mechanical precision.
