Göteborgs stadshus, Neo-classical city hall at Gustaf Adolfs torg, Sweden

The three-and-a-half-story town hall features smooth plastered facades, an extended entrance portal, and a mezzanine level facing the square.

The initial provisional town hall from 1621 stood on this plot until the 1640s, when it was replaced by the Corps de garde between 1703 and 1707.

The building displays architectural elements from different periods, with the main structure designed by city engineer Bengt Wilhelm Carlberg in 1759.

The facility houses administrative offices and municipal departments, serving as the central location for Gothenburg's city government operations.

After a fire in 1746, the building was reconstructed in brick, and in 1823 underwent modifications that added a mezzanine floor toward the square.

Location: Gothenburg Municipality

Architects: Bengt Wilhelm Carlberg
