Former Poznań Town Hall, Renaissance town hall in Old Market Square, Poland.
The three-story building features ornate loggias, medallions depicting ancient figures, and decorative inscriptions highlighting judicial importance throughout its facade.
The initial Gothic structure from the 13th century underwent transformation between 1550 and 1560 under architect Giovanni Battista di Quadro into Renaissance style.
The Great Hall exhibits Renaissance stucco decorations, while the Royal Hall displays portraits of Polish kings through different periods of history.
The Town Hall Museum, located at Stary Rynek 1, presents exhibitions about Poznań's history from the 13th century until 1954.
Two mechanical goats emerge from the tower at noon each day, accompanied by a traditional bugle call played hourly between 7 AM and 9 PM.
