Altes Rathaus, Gothic town hall building in Altstadt, Germany
The former town hall of Kiel featured a neo-Gothic facade and stood at the southeast corner of the Old Market until its destruction in 1943.
During the March Revolution of 1848, the provisional government gathered at Altes Rathaus to establish the first democratic constitution in German territory.
The medieval building underwent multiple architectural transformations between 1300 and 1845, reflecting the changing administrative needs of the growing city.
The remaining cellar vaults of the former town hall now form part of a restaurant structure near the Old Market square.
The municipal administration transferred to a new building in 1911 as the Altes Rathaus became insufficient for the expanding city services.
