Monheim Town Hall, Baroque town hall in Monheim, Germany.

Monheim Town Hall is a square Baroque building of three storeys with five window axes on its front and side facades, topped by a hipped roof with gabled dormer windows. The market-side portal has a stairway, an oculus and a wide projecting gable. Most rooms carry stucco ceilings with scrollwork and fruit garlands, and the council chamber ceiling is painted with ornaments, biblical scenes and Hebrew inscriptions.

The building was constructed between 1714 and 1720 by Jewish merchant Abraham Elias Model as his residence and later converted into municipal offices. Its early history is tied to the presence of Jewish merchants in the Palatinate region during that period.

The council chamber ceiling carries a star-shaped Hebrew inscription praising the Torah and asking for deliverance from the diaspora. Medallions in the hall and side rooms show scenes from the Old Testament, including Jacob's blessing, the sacrifice of Isaac, Jacob's ladder, King David and Moses.

The town hall is open to visitors during regular business hours, and the council chambers remain accessible outside of official meetings and ceremonies. It is worth checking ahead to confirm access since municipal business may occasionally close the building to the public.

The building stands as one of the few surviving examples of the brief prosperity Jewish citizens achieved in this region before their expulsion from Palatinate-Neuburg in 1741. The ceiling paintings showing Moses and King David reveal the high artistic standards that were invested in this residence at the time.
