Walpole Town Hall, Rathaus in den Vereinigten Staaten
Walpole Town Hall is a two-story brick administrative building in Massachusetts. Its most distinctive feature is a square clock tower roughly 70 feet (21 meters) high, topped with a pyramid-shaped roof and rising above the main entrance.
Walpole Town Hall was designed by architect J. Williams Beal and built in 1881 in Late Victorian style with Romanesque elements. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1981, exactly 100 years after its construction.
Walpole Town Hall carries the name of its town and reflects local identity. The building serves as a gathering place for residents, showing how important community meetings remain in New England life.
The building sits on Main Street in downtown Walpole and is easy to reach on foot. The surrounding area has nearby shops and outdoor benches, making it pleasant to explore the space and view the architecture from outside.
The clock tower has been visible from many spots around town for over 140 years and helps residents tell time. This working feature made the tower both a practical tool and a visual landmark for the entire community.
