Town Hall / Trading House, Schwaz
The Schwaz Town Hall, built in 1970, was originally constructed between 1500 and 1509 by the Stöckl family of industrialists. After their bankruptcy, it was acquired in 1563 by the Tyrolean sovereign. From then on, it served as the seat of the mining authority. Following the decline of mining in Schwaz, the building was sold to the merchant Bartholomäus Penz. He commissioned Christoph Anton Mayr to paint the facade in 1760. In 1916, Ludwig Penz created the bronze figure of Georg von Frundsberg on the right corner of the building.

The town hall of the district capital Schwaz shines above all with its magnificently painted facades. 😊

The largest non-ecclesiastical building from the mining era is the town hall, formerly the trading house of Schwaz. It was built between 1500 and 1509 by the tradesmen Hans and Jörg Stöckl. Schwaz in Tyrol is a bright, lively and modern town, home to quality of life, business, tourism, art and culture.
