Town Hall, Hasselt, Gothic administrative building in Hasselt, Belgium

The Town Hall exhibits two distinct architectural phases, with the eastern section made of Bentheimer sandstone and the western part displaying a simpler design.

The eastern section of the Town Hall was completed in 1550, marked by a keystone above the entrance, while the western part dates from 1615.

The council chamber contains a notable 1657 painting by Nicolaes van Galen, documenting the period when legal proceedings took place in the building.

The Town Hall maintains an extensive collection of medieval weapons, including halberds, morning stars, peaks, and hook buses for public viewing.

The structure served as both a town hall and a weigh house, combining administrative functions with commercial activities in medieval Hasselt.
