A town hall at the same place was first mentioned in 1338. The year 1351 is also often mentioned, including in the Handbook of German Art Monuments from Dehio.
It is assumed that at that time there was a Gothic gabled house with two gables to the west and east and open arcades to the south. This was largely destroyed in city fires in 1531 and 1558. As a result, a building in the Renaissance style was built in 1567, the tower of which was completed by 1575. With the exception of a few solid walls, this was destroyed in 1651 in a fire that broke out in a forge behind the town hall and destroyed around 150 houses in the town with it.
Due to the city's financial difficulties, reconstruction took until 1654 and a more modest building was built with simple half-timbered gables on both sides and two low gabled roofs. The new building was financed from donations collected in the Reich.

The building consists of two half-timbered gables from the 17th century and different parts of the building, some of whose history goes back to the 14th century. the archway and passage to the butcher's market is a reminder of this time.

The Old Town Hall in Schwerin was the town hall of the royal seat of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. The listed building on the market square stands in the same place as the previous buildings, which have been documented since 1338.
