Town hall of Paris 1st arrondissement

The Town Hall of the 1st arrondissement stands at Place Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois, displaying elements of eclectic architecture designed by Jacques Ignace Hittorff.

Constructed around 1860, the building withstood the Franco-Prussian War and remained operational during the turbulent events of the Paris Commune in 1871.

The structure maintains its position as an administrative center where local authorities organize community gatherings, municipal ceremonies, and neighborhood council meetings.

Located near major metro stations, the town hall operates during standard business hours and provides services including civil registration, electoral procedures, and administrative documents.

The building features architectural elements that reflect the transition period between classical and modern styles in 19th century Parisian municipal architecture.
