Very photogenic building, lovingly kept in shot. Here one comes over, if one strolls the lakeside promenade past the boat moorings.

Gmunden Town Hall, whose origins date back to 1574, is not only an architectural gem but also an important symbol of the city's history. Its expansion in 1676 gave the building additional charm and timeless character. Of particular note is the loggia, which has housed an impressive carillon made of Meissen porcelain since 1959. This work of art enriches the townscape and demonstrates the local connection to the artistic ceramics so typical of Gmunden. The green-flamed decoration of the carillon blends harmoniously with the historic atmosphere of the town hall and captivates both locals and tourists. The town hall is thus not just an administrative building, but a place where history comes alive and traditions are preserved.

The core of the town hall dates from the 16th century, the stucco decoration from 1756. The city wanted to have a "ceramic glockenspiel" installed in the Renaissance town hall as a special attraction. Despite their quality, their own products were not suitable for bells. So the search was on for a related material. The game was made in Meissen with the Gmunden decor. The bells hang in a loggia on the facade of the town hall.

The town hall with its carillon made of Gmundner ceramics puts everyone in the right mood to stroll along the lake promenade from here (e.g. to Schloss Ort). But it should be nice weather!

There is also a weekly market in front of the town hall every Tuesday.

A fantastic historic building from the 16th (!) century.
