Rathaus, Town hall on Stadtplatz in Abensberg, Germany

The Rathaus at Stadtplatz 1 is a late Gothic gabled building with a Renaissance wave gable and a Baroque octagonal roof turret. Its window surrounds are mostly double-chamfered. A renovation in 1926 reshaped parts of it, and the main entrance now sits on the gable side facing the square.

The Rathaus was built in the 16th century as a late Gothic gabled building with a Renaissance wave gable and a baroque octagonal roof turret. It was remodeled in 1926, and from early 2018 to the end of 2020 it underwent a full renovation and was made barrier-free, with the main entrance moved to the gable side on Stadtplatz.

The Rathaus stands at Stadtplatz 1, and since the 2018–2020 general renovation its main entrance has been on the gable side facing the square. The building remains Abensberg's town hall, so the address and the entrance side are what visitors notice first.

The main entrance now faces the Stadtplatz on the gable side, moved there during the 2018–2020 renovation that also made the building barrier-free. As the town hall is in daily use by the city administration, visitors should check opening hours before planning to go inside.

The 2018–2020 general renovation kept most of the historic building fabric in the protected section, but the contaminated roof truss had to be replaced completely. The main entrance was moved to the gable side on Stadtplatz, and a southern annex used by the town administration was demolished and rebuilt.
