Rathaus, Town hall in Überlingen, Germany

The Rathaus features a Gothic council chamber with intricate paneled walls, decorated friezes, and sculptures representing the Holy Roman Empire states inside its stone building.

The initial construction of the Rathaus dates to 1332, with significant expansion in the 1490s adding a three-story gable structure made of Rorschacher sandstone.

The council chamber, designed by sculptor Jakob Russ between 1490 and 1494, demonstrates late Gothic realism through its detailed architectural elements and artistic features.

The building continues to function as the administrative center of Überlingen, hosting city council meetings and municipal services for local residents and visitors.

The Pfennigturm attached to the southeast corner once served as an imperial mint and includes a sundial that holds technical monument status.
