      The late Gothic Leuven Town Hall was built between 1439 and 1469 and, unlike many town halls of the time, does not have a tall central tower, but instead has a slender, towering turret at each of the four corners of each of the two gable ends.
      The 236 figures in the niches themselves were only added after 1850 and display a pictorial program typical of 19th-century historicism, a kind of "Leuven Pantheon": The statues in the bottom row represent artists, scholars, and other important figures in Leuven's city history; the statues in the second row represent patrons of Leuven's parishes and individuals who championed the city's freedoms; the third row depicts the Counts of the County of Leuven and the Dukes of Brabant. Biblical figures stand in the towers.
