Coventry Council House, Tudor Revival town hall in Coventry, England
The Coventry Council House features a prominent clock tower topped by a statue of St Michael and stands with a stone exterior of four floors.
Construction began in 1913 and concluded in 1917, replacing St Mary's Guildhall as the headquarters for the mayor and city corporation administration.
Four statues representing Leofric, Godiva, and other historical figures were installed above the entrance in 1924, connecting the building to local heritage.
The building remains the central location for city council meetings, administrative services, and municipal decision-making processes for Coventry residents.
During the 1940 Coventry Blitz, the building sustained damage that resulted in the destruction of numerous stained glass windows.
