    Beautiful old half-timbered house with the best half-timbered art and flat carvings.

      The Old Town Hall (1660) is a three-storey half-timbered jewel on the Eschwege market square with a half-hipped roof, struts with widely flared male figures, an entrance portal with arches and pilasters, the town's coat of arms, inscriptions and angel heads above the cornice; finely carved cornice structures, corner posts, struts and head angles with extensive flat and relief carvings such as fittings, tendrils, animals and heads. A carillon with a bell-founding monk delights the listeners.

        The Old Town Hall from 1660 is an important building, with the best half-timbered art and flat carvings, in the half-timbered ensemble of Eschwege's market square.
        A 16-carillon connects the old town hall with another town house.
