      One of the largest medieval town halls located directly on the market square. But not only its age, but also its appearance make the Lüneburg town hall one of the most important buildings in northern Germany. The old town hall was built around 1230 and continuously expanded over the centuries. This created an interplay of different stylistic eras, which gives the building its unique appearance.

        One of the most outstanding architectural monuments in northern Germany is the historic Lüneburg town hall with its famous court arbor, the former council chamber, which was designed by an unknown master. It was started around 1230, expanded over the centuries and is considered the largest medieval town hall in northern Germany. The bronze fountain in front of the town hall is decorated with a bronze statue of the moon goddess with a bow and arrow; the original from 1532 was stolen and melted down in 1970; today's bust is a replica from 1972.

        The front view shows the baroque facade (1706-1720), the lower court (1389) remains of the old facade. It is behind the iron fence on the right. In order to grasp the entire complex, it is worth walking around the town hall (driving is also possible). The town hall should be completely renovated and modernized by 2024-2025.

        The tourist information is on the left. In front of it stands a lovingly designed bronze model of the old city center that also wants to be felt.

        Wed + Sat the weekly market takes place in front of the town hall (approx. 7:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.).
