The city administration of Dinkelsbühl has been based in the New Town Hall since 1855. The building, originally built in 1733 as a private house for the postmaster, senator and later mayor Bauer, bears a banner on the front facing Segringer Street, held by a craftsman and a councilor, in which the so-called "Direction Letter" of 1387 is quoted, which involved the guilds in the city government.

Great building in which the town hall is housed. At the back of the building is an open space which is very quiet and invites you to linger. The town hall also houses the city archives.
