Stadhuis Enkhuizen, City hall in Enkhuizen, Netherlands

The Stadhuis Enkhuizen stands at Breedstraat 53, featuring a sandstone facade, square floor plan, and rising 14 meters high with a width of 22 meters.

Steven Vennekool designed this municipal building between 1686 and 1688, marking a new architectural direction as the first pilasterless town hall in the Netherlands.

The interior holds painted canvases, wooden chandeliers, marble floors, and the Burgemeesterskamer contains wall coverings and ceiling paintings from the 17th century.

The Schepenkamer room, decorated with green velvet, functions as a wedding venue accommodating up to 60 people with preserved historical elements.

A 1622 cannon from Mechelen stands at the entrance, accompanied by a poem commemorating its capture from Dunkirk pirates.
