Rathaus Markgröningen, Timber-framed town hall in Markgröningen, Germany.

The Rathaus measures 15.47 meters wide and 24.96 meters long, featuring 54 oak pillars that support its five-story structure reaching 26.4 meters high.

Construction of the administrative building began in 1441, replacing an earlier structure between the churchyard and Kirchgasse, funded by wealthy citizens of Württemberg.

The building combines administrative functions with historical features, including an astronomical clock with two dials and a preserved sundial on the southern facade.

The municipal offices inside the Rathaus remain operational, hosting departments and the mayor's office while utilizing adjacent buildings for administrative needs.

Dendrochronological studies reveal that the 54 oak pillars supporting the structure were harvested during the winter of 1440/41.
