Neues Rathaus, Town hall in central Chemnitz, Germany
The Neues Rathaus is an administrative building in downtown Chemnitz featuring Renaissance-style architecture, a prominent tower, and ornate stone carvings. A large Roland statue stands at its corner, dominating the square.
Construction took place between 1907 and 1911 as the city grew rapidly due to industrialization and needed more administrative space. Chemnitz had become an important industrial center.
The City Council Chamber holds a notable mural from 1918 by Max Klinger depicting work, prosperity, and beauty. This artwork continues to define the room and reflects what the artist considered important for the community.
Guided tours of the building and tower can be arranged through the Chemnitz Tourist Information office, offering views across the city center. The location is central and easily accessible on foot.
A carillon with 48 bells was installed in the tower in 1978, with each bell ranging in size and weight to create musical compositions across multiple octaves. This bell system remains a special feature of the site today.
