New Town Hall, Renaissance Revival town hall in Mitte, Germany.
The New Town Hall is an administrative building in Renaissance Revival style with an elaborate facade extending across the front. The structure houses offices, a tourist information center on the ground floor, and a restaurant in the basement.
Construction started in 1883 following designs by a prominent architect and replaced the previous town hall that had become too small. The new building was meant to reflect the growing city and its expanding needs.
The facade displays statues of rulers and figures connected to the city's history. These representations tell of the political past and key figures who shaped its development.
The main entrance leads to public areas including the tourism desk and the basement restaurant. Keep in mind that portions of the building house administrative offices that are not always open to visitors.
A distinctive tower topped with a symbolic figure can be accessed by elevator from inside the building. This offers visitors an unexpected view over the city from above.
