The town hall of Moselkern is located in the immediate vicinity of the church and the rectory. This symbolizes very nicely the need for good cooperation between the civil community and the church since the building was constructed for the benefit of the villagers. The entrance greets you with a simple but solid frame of the wooden door made of red sandstone. This stone probably comes from the Trier area and shows the particularly high importance of the building for the original builders. The focus when building the house was not on representation but on practicality and certainly also on the defense of the building. Many years of the history of the building from 1535 are and will remain a mystery to us. The size and craftsmanship of the construction work suggest that this building was necessary for the life of the people of Moselkern. The fact that the half-timbered building on solid foundations has been preserved to this day and is an attractive attraction in the village with its beauty proves the high appreciation that the people of Moselkern have had for the house over the centuries. The architectural and craftsmanship of the work is admirable. Rubble stones and mortar were used, which were extracted locally. The wood probably comes from the nearby Niederwald forest. Some of the wooden beams in the town hall show notches and holes that show that they had previously been used for other purposes. This shows how limited the builders' resources were on the one hand and also how important the building was to the users centuries ago. The limited building materials and the use of building materials from the region are the basis for the character and beauty of the architecture. The entrance area of the house is well above the current height of Oberstraße in 2013. Moselkern town hall probably survived the frequent destruction of the town in its original form without major damage. Unevenness in the stone floor on the ground floor is probably the result of Moselle flooding. The half-timbering of the building was extensively renovated around 40 years ago. Unfortunately, a non-breathable paint was applied to the outside surface of the wooden beams and sealed them. Rainwater flowed down both facades and penetrated the cracks in the half-timbering. The serious consequences are rotten spots on many structurally important wooden parts. In 2013, the people of Moselkern are faced with the great challenge of repairing the damaged spots on the wooden beams and renovating both facades of the town hall. As has often been the case in the history of this important half-timbered building, the civil municipality's coffers are under great strain. The great challenge is not the craftsmanship and technical skills but the financing of the construction work. The opinions of those responsible for local politics in Moselkern have probably always been very diverse when it comes to the use and maintenance of the building. It is to be hoped that the current storm, like many others, will pass the building by and that renovation can be carried out successfully, as has been the case so many times before. Due to its architecture and small-scale layout, the town hall of Moselkern requires very sensitive use that ensures its preservation and prevents damage. Special thanks go to the people of Moselkern, many friends and supporters of half-timbered construction who strive to preserve and further develop the historic town hall, but also to the many tourists who stand admiringly in front of the façade and admire the beauty of the building.
