    In 1907 the town hall was inaugurated. It also served as the city savings bank until 1956; the construction indicates the double function:
    On the facade facing Stiftsstraße we find the entrance, which is designed in a historicizing-Romanesque form as an open "Ratslaube". The owl is attached as a symbol of wisdom above the decorative gable designed as "Utlucht". A little further down we see the bat as a symbol of vigilance. Both can be understood as a mandate to the city council and administration. The lettering “Sparkasse der Stadt Wunstorf” is designed in Art Nouveau style on the south street façade. That is why thrift and diligence are depicted there.
    From 1984 to 1995 the town hall was renovated and expanded. The neighboring registry office, a former Burgmannshof, was also integrated into the complex.
    The courtyard of the town hall ("Armin-Mandel-Hof") is used for numerous events, especially during the summer months.
    The carillon was installed in 1987. The bells bear the names of the Wunstorfer districts. In 1990 the circulation of figures was added. At 9.30 a.m., 12.30 p.m., 3.30 p.m
    and 5.30 p.m. a citizen drinks to a citizen with a cup, the so-called "Willkomm" (ornate drinking vessel for festive occasions).

      The town hall of the city of Wunstorf is a multi-storey building with arched windows, several pointed roofs and a carillon on the outer facade. It is located at Südstraße 1. Originally, the Stadtsparkasse was also housed there.
