Old Town Hall in Olsztyn, Gothic town hall in Old Town Square, Olsztyn, Poland.
Olsztyn's Old Town Hall is a brick structure with Gothic elements and a prominent tower located at the edge of the central Old Town area. The building features sundials on its exterior walls and currently houses the Provincial Public Library.
The structure rose between the 15th and 16th centuries and functioned as the city's administrative center until 1915. Across the decades it survived multiple fires and reconstructions that altered its form.
The building shapes the character of the Old Town Square today and draws visitors exploring medieval Olsztyn. Its central location makes it a natural gathering point for experiencing local history through architecture.
The building sits at 33 Stare Miasto Street and houses the Provincial Library, which welcomes visitors. Its central location makes it easy to reach and convenient to combine with other historic attractions nearby.
During 2003 restoration work, crews uncovered original Gothic architectural features hidden beneath plaster layers for decades. This discovery revealed that the southern section preserved more of the region's medieval craftsmanship than previously suspected.
