Historic Town Hall Kandel

Baroque building, erected between 1773 and 1783 according to plans by the Pfalz-Zweibrücken bridge and road construction inspector Christiany, who also planned the Catholic parish church of St. Michael in Kandel's French twin town Reichshoffen in 1771.
For a long time, the representative building was not only used as a town hall. Rather, the magistrate's court was once housed on the upper floor and the court officials lived in the attic of the attic. The ground floor, on the other hand, housed the municipal administration from the start. The village policeman's guardroom was also located here. The “fruit and grocer's markets” were held for a long time in the large foyer and the calibration of the scales was checked. But the post office, the savings bank and the tax and community collection department also found temporary accommodation here.
Today the listed building still houses the large council chamber, which is also used for exhibitions and other representative events, the city library and the office of the Kandel adult education center.
In 2000/2001 the building was completely renovated.
