City Hall, Renaissance town hall in Grote Markt, Haarlem, Netherlands.

The city hall features a tall slender tower, a pointed archway called Pandpoort, and a Renaissance facade with a balcony at Grote Markt 2.

Built in 1370 on the site of a former hunting lodge of the Counts of Holland, the building incorporated a Dominican monastery after the Protestant Reformation.

The Gravenzaal houses 19 panels depicting 32 counts and countesses of Holland, painted around 1493 for the Carmelite monastery of Haarlem.

The building functions as the administrative center of Haarlem, offering municipal services and serving as a wedding venue with specific visiting hours.

The interior contains a memorial board painted by Han Bijvoet commemorating ten people executed following an attack in 1943.
