Old Linden City Hall

Old Linden City Hall is a red brick administrative building with Neo-Gothic details located in Hannover. Its facade features decorative stonework and pointed arches that create a distinctive appearance across two main stories.

The building was constructed between 1883 and 1884 and served as the administrative center before the area merged with Hannover. It was built during a period of rapid industrial expansion in the region.

The building reflects how the growing industrial area wanted to show its importance through a grand civic structure. Visitors can sense how much pride local residents took in having their own city hall.

Visitors can view and photograph the building from the surrounding streets, as it stands at a prominent intersection with multiple vantage points. The location is easily accessible and offers good photo opportunities from different angles.

The original council chamber was converted into an art exhibition space from 1958 to 1961, displaying local artworks. This transformation shows how the historical building adapted to the cultural needs of the postwar era.
