The town hall of the town of Ellingen in the Middle Franconian district of Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen is located in the town center at the intersection of Weißenburger Straße and Schlossstraße. The building with the address Weißenburger Straße 1 is registered as an architectural monument in the Bavarian monument list under the monument number D-5-77-125-111.[1]

The late baroque building was built between 1744 and 1747 by the Teutonic Order according to plans by Franz Joseph Roth, a plasterer and master builder. It originally contained the high court administration of the Ellingen Land Commandery. It also contained a pharmacy, a meeting room, offices, a citizens' room and a prison. In 1794, renovations were carried out according to plans by Balthasar Gaab. An interior renovation took place between 1860 and 1861.[1][2]

The two-story mansard roof building is made of sandstone and has a bell tower on the roof. A pillory stood at the southwest corner of the building. The building has a central projection and a front staircase on the south side. The Rococo statues on the facade are by Friedrich Maucher and Johann Peter Wagner. After the bombing in World War II, in which the building was partially badly damaged, it was reconstructed in 1950
