One of the most beautiful historical monuments in the city and only accessible via a guided tour by appointment. It was built under the reign of Louis XIII in the 17th century. The facade of the town hall is lavishly decorated with baroque ornaments, golden stucco and garlands. After a fire in 1674, the building was restored.
