Stadhuis, Sneek, Town hall in Sneek, Netherlands

The Stadhuis is a town hall in Sneek featuring stone walls, a carved facade, and an elevated entrance platform. The building serves as the municipal administrative center and hosts ceremonial gatherings.

The building was originally constructed in 1480 and underwent multiple renovations between 1550 and 1763. These modifications shaped its current appearance and reflect the city's architectural evolution.

The entrance displays allegorical figures representing justice and freedom alongside the city coat of arms with a lion and wild figure. These symbols reflect the values that have defined this place for generations.

The building features an elevated entrance platform that visitors should navigate carefully, especially in wet conditions. The structure is easily visible from outside, making it simple to explore the exterior details.

The interior preserves a helmet that belonged to Grutte Pier, a legendary figure from local history. The walls display gold-leaf wallpaper decorated with Chinese garden motifs.
