Rathaus Wuppertal-Elberfeld

The three-story municipal building features masonry made of basaltic lava with sandstone inclusions and an 80-meter-high tower at the east corner of the market facade.

Constructed between 1895 and 1900 by Berlin architects Reinhardt und Süßenguth, the building lost its decorative figurines representing local historical figures during World War II.

The interior preserves traditional German architectural elements, including a net-vaulted entrance hall, a double main staircase, and a network-vaulted Ratskeller beneath the structure.

Located at Johannes Rau-Platz, the building currently functions as an administrative center with limited wheelchair access and specific areas dedicated to social services.

The western section includes a corner building topped by a roof turret with curved gables, while the eastern tower features distinctive lantern crowns.
