The Old Town Hall from 1576 on the Untermarkt is one of the most famous motifs in the Old Town. It includes the Municipal Gallery, where exhibitions are shown and cultural events (cabaret, chamber concerts, readings, lectures) take place (see event calendar).

Another note: During the Advent season, the façade of the old town hall is especially festively decorated.

The old town hall is a half-timbered house in Hattingen. Since about 1420 the building was a market hall for the sale of meat, built from Ruhr sandstone. In 1576 the building was raised by two floors in half-timbered construction and used as a town hall.

During a renovation at the end of the 18th century, the building received large windows, the half-timbering was plastered, the roof with the pointed gables was replaced by a hipped roof and the hall was converted into a passage with prison cells. The passage connects the Untermarkt with the church square.
