Rathaus West, Administrative building in Weststadt, Karlsruhe, Germany
The Rathaus West features sandstone facades and stands prominently at Mühlburger Tor, marking the entrance to the northern government district of Karlsruhe.
The Neo-Renaissance structure was built between 1895 and 1898 by architect Adolf Hanser as headquarters for the General Welfare Institution of Karlsruhe.
The building serves as a protected cultural heritage monument, representing the administrative architecture of late 19th century Baden-Württemberg.
The Social and Youth Authority occupies most of the building, while citizens can access various administrative services at the nearby Bürgerbüro K8.
French and American forces occupied the building after World War II before it returned to municipal administrative functions.
