Hôtel de ville de Lille, Town hall and belfry in Lille, France

The Lille City Hall features a 104-meter high belfry tower made of red brick and stylized concrete, incorporating Art Deco and Neo-Flemish architectural elements.

The city hall construction between 1924 and 1932 by architect Émile Dubuisson replaced the previous building destroyed during World War I.

At the base of the belfry, sculptural representations of Lyderic and Phinaert tell the story of the city's foundation through local legends.

The building includes 400 steps leading to observation areas, and visitors can access guided tours with audio guides offering 360-degree views of Lille.

The beacon at the top of the belfry projects light visible up to 30 kilometers away, making it the highest municipal building in France.
