Neues Rathaus, Town hall in central Chemnitz, Germany

The Neues Rathaus features a monumental Renaissance-style architecture with a prominent tower, stone reliefs, and a 4.75-meter Roland statue at its corner.

Construction of the Neues Rathaus took place from 1907 to 1911, as Chemnitz needed a larger administrative building due to its population growth during industrialization.

The City Council Chamber contains the notable 1918 mural 'Arbeit = Wohlstand = Schönheit' created by artist Max Klinger, representing work, prosperity, and beauty.

Visitors can access guided tours of the building and tower through the Chemnitz Tourist Information office, offering views over the city center.

A carillon with 48 bells weighing between 9.5 and 957 kilograms was installed in the tower in 1978, performing musical compositions across four octaves.
