Bamberg - Altes Rathaus 05

The old city hall in Bamberg is one of the most important buildings which stamps the historical city centre. It is between the mountain town and island town in the left river Regnitz.

 

In 1387 the city hall was mentioned for the first time and built in the time between 1461 and 1467 anew, so that it accepted the today's shape. In this construction phase it was influenced primarily by the Gothic.

 

The half-timbered house tilled in the bridge tower is called Rottmeisterhäuschen and served the leaders of the guard as a lodging.
