Meisenheim Town Hall

The construction of the town hall testifies to the comparatively great prosperity of the town at the beginning of the 16th century. Master builder and stonemason Philipp von Gmünd once again demonstrated his skills with this neat late Gothic building around 1508.
The large hall on the ground floor was used as a fruit market hall and served as a storage place for civil weapons and pokers, ladders and leather buckets. The council chamber was upstairs. There was an inn on the upper floor as early as 1528 and 1529.
The beautiful Renaissance portal leads inside to a spiral staircase, which was only built in around 1580. In 1611 the building was given a roof turret, from where a fire alarm was presumably given. Source: Meisenheim.de
