Historisches Rathaus, Gothic town hall at Marktplatz, Minden, Germany
The historic town hall features a medieval stone arcade, vaulted cellars, and a large ceremonial hall on the upper floor.
Built in 1260 by Minden citizens, the building symbolized their independence from ecclesiastical rulers and survived extensive modifications over six centuries.
The medieval arcade served as a courthouse and trading center where merchants gathered to conduct business and settle legal matters.
The historic building now contains representative spaces including small and large council halls, while administrative offices are located in the adjacent modern building.
The arcade, dating from the 13th century, represents the oldest structure of its kind in Westphalia and remained intact through World War II.
