Town hall, Neoclassical rathaus in Škloŭ, Belarus.

The Town Hall of Škloŭ is a neoclassical building with symmetrical facades and balanced proportions positioned in the town center. Its classical details and structured arrangement of architectural elements define the appearance of this civic structure.

After a large fire in 1769, Prince Czartoryski moved Shklov 2.5 km north, between the Dnieper and Shklovyanka rivers. The new market with its town hall and trading rows was built in 1770–1772. Damaged in the Second World War, the hall was restored and the rows rebuilt in 1999–2000.

The building served as the focal point of civic life and administration, showing how even smaller Belarusian towns sought to establish themselves as modern European centers. The design reflects the aspirations of local authorities to create a space that commanded respect and represented proper governance.

The Town Hall is centrally located in Škloŭ and easily reached via the main street through town. Parking is available on nearby streets, and the site is easily accessible on foot.

The tower once held a clock, a bell and an observation platform, and a through-passage ran beneath the first floor. A plaque unveiled on 2 June 2017 records that Shklov received Magdeburg rights in 1574, long before this hall was built.
