Town hall of Žižkov, Neo-Renaissance town hall in Žižkov, Czech Republic

The Town Hall of Žižkov is a Neo-Renaissance building of 1889–1890 by architect Jan Šimáček, standing at Havlíčkovo náměstí 9. Its L-shaped plan joins two three-storey wings to a cylindrical three-axis entrance section, with a balustraded balcony above the entrance, three balconies on the square-facing wing, and a dome topped by a hexagonal lantern holding two automatic bells.

The Neo-Renaissance town hall was built in 1889–1890 to a design by architect Jan Šimáček. The Žižkov municipal office moved in on 3 and 4 September 1890, and Emperor Franz Joseph I visited in September of that year. The building served as the town hall until Žižkov was incorporated into Prague in 1922. A neighbouring house on Lipanská Street was later demolished to add a new wing.

The building's former meeting room on the second floor now serves as a ceremonial hall, and President Václav Havel was married there. The Prague 3 Municipal Office still occupies the building, and since 2003 the underground spaces have been open to the public as exhibition rooms.

The building is easily accessible by public transportation via the Lipanská station, from which you walk north along the neighborhood's main street. The surrounding area is flat and straightforward to navigate on foot.

The dome's hexagonal lantern holds two automatic bells, and three circular clock faces sit in its gables. Since 2003 the underground level has been open to the public as exhibition space. The building was entered on the list of cultural monuments on 31 December 1976.
