Town Hall of Fürth, Municipal office building in central Fürth, Germany.

The Town Hall of Fürth is a large municipal building of tan and grey stone blocks on Königstraße. Its long rectangular main body has round-arched windows on the ground floor and tall arched windows above. At the left corner a square tower with two round clock dials and a crenellated parapet rises above an arched entrance; three flagpoles stand before three deep entrance arches on the right facade.

The main building was erected from 1840 to 1844 to plans by Georg Friedrich Christian Bürklein, with Eduard Bürklein stating he had "collaborated" on them. From 1845 to 1850 a further section with the tower followed, modelled on the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. In 1900/01 Friedrich von Thiersch added the wing on Königstraße that now houses the session hall.

The tower's carillon of 25 bells, cast by the Eijsbouts foundry, was installed on 1 November 2007 and plays Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" daily at 12:04. During the Michaeliskirchweih festival and special occasions the tower is lit with lamps, a decoration the city kept after residents took to it.

The tower can be visited on special occasions such as the open day; the U-Bahn station Rathaus lies directly beneath the building, and the former four-lane Bundesstraße 8 in front has been replaced by a bus station. The carillon in the tower plays daily at 12:04.

The tower's carillon of 25 bells, cast by the Eijsbouts foundry, was installed on 1 November 2007 and plays Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" daily at 12:04 pm. The bells had previously served a company in Bayreuth before being offered to former city heritage curator Alexander Mayer.
