Altes Gräfrather Rathaus

The building features two wings connecting at a rounded turret with a clock tower and displays traditional Neubergisch architectural elements with regional materials.

Architect Arno Eugen Fritsche designed the town hall in 1907, serving the independent city of Gräfrath until its incorporation into Solingen in 1929.

The structure houses the Kunstmuseum Solingen, presenting modern art exhibitions and maintaining collections from local artists such as Georg Meistermann.

Located near the market square, the museum building includes exhibition spaces, art galleries, and a center dedicated to persecuted artists.

The facade incorporates alternating materials including slate, clay tiles, plaster surfaces, and wood, creating distinct visual patterns throughout the structure.
