Oude stadhuis, Renaissance town hall at Grote Markt, Netherlands.

The Oude Stadhuis features a stone staircase adorned with lion sculptures carrying the coats of arms of Breda and Brabant at its entrance.

After the original structure from the 13th century burned down in 1534, the building underwent reconstruction and received a new facade between 1766 and 1768.

The interior displays numerous paintings of the House of Orange, marble fireplaces, and intricate stucco decorations that reflect Dutch governmental architecture.

The building maintains its administrative functions while offering ceremonial spaces for weddings and official receptions in the center of Breda.

A statue of Justice stands above the entrance, commemorating the building's past function as a courthouse until the end of the French period.
