    The Old Town Hall is one of the most important Renaissance buildings in Bohemia. The two-storey palace in the Florentine Renaissance style has two side wings and arcades in the courtyard. The façade facing the square is decorated mainly with figurative chiaroscuro paintings. It was designed by Italian architects in the service of the Rosenberg family. The paintings are by the Prachatice artist Jan Březnický. In addition to the council chamber and the mayor's rooms, there was also a "town wine bar" here from 1666 and later a theater on the ground floor. After the construction of the New Town Hall in 1903, the building lost its importance and became the district court (until 1974) and the seat of the District National Committee. Since 1992 it has belonged to the town of Prachatice again, which uses it as the seat of its municipal office. The central tourist information office is also located here (open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and from June to September also on Saturdays and Sundays, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.).
