Town hall of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Gothic and Renaissance town hall in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Germany.
The town hall combines architectural elements with a Gothic section from 1250 and a Renaissance extension added in 1572, featuring a clock tower and baroque arcade.
The building served as the administrative center during Rothenburg's period as a free imperial city from 1274 until 1803, marking the town's political independence.
The town hall's clock tower balcony provides access points for photographers to capture images of the medieval market square and surrounding architecture.
Visitors can climb the tower's 220 steps between April and October to reach an observation platform offering views across the red-tiled roofs of Rothenburg.
The structure incorporates two distinct architectural periods, with the older Gothic hall positioned behind the newer Renaissance facade that faces the market square.
