Ayr Town Hall, Category A listed municipal building in Ayr, Scotland.
The neoclassical town hall features a 277-foot steeple with architectural elements inspired by the Tower of the Winds in Athens.
Constructed in 1830 by architect Thomas Hamilton at a cost of £9,965, the building replaced an older tolbooth at Sandgate and New Bridge Street.
The interior houses a concert organ designed by Lewis & Co, installed in 1904, enabling performances by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.
The main assembly hall accommodates 641 people, while the Council Chamber fits 50 visitors and two Committee Rooms hold 25 people each.
A statue of Mahatma Gandhi, crafted by sculptor Guatam Pal, stands inside the town hall since September 2019.
