    The building, which once dominated the spatial arrangement of the city, was later squeezed into the mid-market block, and is now distinguished only by its Gothic tower. It is the oldest element of the preserved building in the 14th century. It functioned as a city prison with a torture chamber on the lower floor. The main town hall was probably erected in the 15th century, with representative interiors on the first floor for the Council, the Bench and the Mayor. From this period have survived, among others. vaults of the Knights' Hall, the southern gable and battlements above the cornices visible from the north. Window and door openings in Renaissance frames come from the mid-16th century. After the town hall tower was demolished in 1797, the City Council decided to raise the prison tower and crown it with a cupola. Today, the building is part of the Regional Museum.
