    "The Old Town Hall on the market dates back to the Renaissance and was built as a city balance in the 15th century, after being rebuilt and rebuilt in 1797, it was the seat of the city council.
    The plastered, two-storey eaves house under hipped roof was built in 1567 for the first time as a city balance. The building received its present appearance in 1797. The strictly classical design is characterized by great clarity, symmetry and ornamental restraint. The existing building was then rebuilt into a town hall and extended to the marketplace by an arcade.
    From 1902 to 1925, the old building served as a municipal combing room and from 1935 it was used as a Heimatmuseum. As one of the few buildings in the city center, the former town hall was partially spared from the devastation of World War II. "Source: Metropole Ruhr

        "The old town hall, built around 1567, together with the market and the parish church of St. Agatha, has shaped the image of Dorsten's city center for centuries. As a town house, the "new" old town hall now offers an unmistakable ambience."
