City hall Patijnlaan, Municipal building in The Hague, Netherlands.
The Patijnlaan City Hall features a modernist design with clean lines, concrete structures, and large windows across multiple floors of administrative spaces.
The building project started in 1947 and served as the central municipal facility from its official inauguration in 1953 until closure in 1995.
The structure contained nine decorative ornaments that represented different aspects of local governance, which were later preserved at Burgemeester De Monchyplein.
During its operation, the building housed municipal offices and administrative services, though city council meetings continued at Javastraat due to space limitations.
Architect Julius Luthmann won the design competition in 1933, but construction was delayed for over a decade due to World War II.
