    The neo-Renaissance building of the New Town Hall on the west side of the Great Square was commissioned by the city authorities in June 1901 due to the growing need for space. Two previous Gothic and Renaissance houses had to make way for the new building, but the original Gothic cellars have been preserved. One corner is adorned with an imposing bell tower. The building, which was completed in 1903, was designed by the Viennese architect Professor Antonín Schurda. The sgraffito decoration of the facade was by the painter Jan Viertelberger, the sculptures by the sculptor Jiří Leisek, both from Vienna. To mark the building's centenary, the facade was renovated in 2003 and 2004. The painting depicting a mule caravan transporting salt on the Golden Route from Passau to Prachatice is very beautiful.
