St Albans Town Hall, Courthouse and Grade II* listed building in St Albans, England.
St Albans Town Hall is a Neoclassical building with a symmetrical facade featuring a central portico supported by Ionic columns and topped with a pediment. Inside are historic rooms including an assembly hall and an octagonal courtroom, which are now accessible to the public as part of a museum.
Built in 1826, the building replaced an earlier Moot Hall from 1570 as the town's administrative and judicial center. It served this purpose for generations until late in the 20th century when its role began to change.
The assembly hall inside functions as a gathering space and reflects its original purpose as a community meeting place. The octagonal courtroom with its detailed wooden paneling shows the building's role as a center of justice for the town.
The building is open to the public and houses the St Albans Museum with various exhibitions on display. After significant renovations, visitors can explore the historic rooms and see how the spaces were originally arranged.
The building earned its high protected status because of its architectural quality and historical importance to the town. This recognition reflects how much the community values preserving it for future generations.
