The town hall in Gostyń was built in the mid-nineteenth century, and its modern shape was given by the reconstruction in 1910-1912. During World War II, there was a prison in the cellars. In the front wall of the town hall there is a plaque commemorating the victims of the Nazis with the inscription "From here they went to the death ramparts to give us victory, our dear heroes, October 21, 1939".
The three-sloped roof is covered with tiles, and a clock tower rises above the ridge.

Ratusz w Gostyniu powstał w połowie XIX wieku, a współczesny kształt nadała mu przebudowa w latach 1910-1912. Podczas II wojny światowej w piwnicach mieściło się więzienie. We frontowej ścianie ratusza umieszczono tablicę upamiętniającą ofiary hitlerowców z napisem "Stąd wyszli na szaniec śmierci, by nam dać zwycięstwo, bohaterowie nasi najdrożsi 21.X.1939 r."

A shot of the rather charming sixteenth century Dovecote at Athelhampton Hall in Dorset.
Truth to say I had never heard of Athelhampton Hall and had therefore no plans to visit it. We were driving from Dorchester to Tolpuddle to visit the Tolpuddle martyrs museum when we spotted the house through a gate , we pulled in and decided to take a look. Glad we did we only had times see the gardens but they were splendid .
Athelhampton Hall is a Grade I listed 15th-century privately owned country house on 160 acres of parkland. Sir William Martyn had the current Great Hall built in about 1493. A West Wing and Gatehouse and this splendid Dovecote were added in 1550
I have posted a shot of the Hall in the top of the comments

The neo-Gothic town hall building in Sulechów dates back to the 16th century. It was reconstructed several times and rebuilt (mainly due to fires). Each time his appearance and style were changed, the tower was added.
The most intense changes were made in the second half of 19th century, almost completely obliterating the original stylish features of the building. The last renovation works took place in 2009.

Znajdujący się na środku rynku w Sulechowie neogotycki budynek ratusza ma swoje początki w XVI wieku. Był kilkakrotnie przebudowywany i odbudowywany (głównie z powodu pożarów). Za każdym razem był zmieniany jego wygląd i styl, dobudowywano wieżę.
Najgruntowniejszych zmian dokonano w II połowie XIX wieku, niemal całkowicie zacierając pierwotne stylowe cechy obiektu. Ostatnie prace remontowe miały miejsce w 2009 roku.

Kirby Hall is one of England’s greatest Elizabethan and 17th-century houses, once owned by Sir Christopher Hatton, Lord Chancellor to Queen Elizabeth I.
Although this vast mansion is partly roofless, the walls show the exceptionally rich decoration that proclaims that its successive owners were always at the forefront of new ideas about architecture and design.
The Great Hall and state rooms remain intact, refitted and redecorated to authentic 17th- and 18th-century specifications.

From Wikipedia ‘In the 15th century, Blickling was in the possession of Sir John Fastolf of Caister in Norfolk (1380–1459), who made a fortune in the Hundred Years' War, and whose coat of arms is still on display there. Later, the property was in the possession of the Boleyn family, and home to Thomas Boleyn, later Earl of Wiltshire, and his wife Elizabeth between 1499 and 1505. Although the exact birth dates of their children are unknown, historians including Eric Ives are confident that all three surviving children were likely born at Blickling – Mary in about 1500, Anne in about 1501, and George in about 1504.[1] A statue and portrait of Anne may be found at Blickling Estate which carry the inscription, "Anna Bolena hic nata 1507" (Anne Boleyn born here 1507), based on earlier scholarship which assigned Anne a (now thought highly improbable) year of birth of 1507.[1]’
The library at Blickling Hall contains one of the most historically significant collections of manuscripts and books in England, containing an estimated 13,000 to 14,000 volumes. The core collection was formed by Sir Richard Ellys. The property passed into the care of the National Trust in 1940.

The great reception hall at Shibamata Taishakuten, a Buddhist temple, set in a traditional Japanese garden. You actually walk round the garden on a covered walkway of wood - you leave your shoes at the entrance and walk in your socks (as a Swede I am quite familiar to the concept of not wearing shoes indoors, but this was a new experience even for me, and as this was in December, it was a bit cold for the toes). Very contemplative and very beautiful. The garden was created in 1965, and the reception hall dates to 1929.
Shibamata Taishakuten was founded in 1629 - but the buildings in the area are generally from the early 20th century. The inner shrine of the Taishakudo (Taishaku temple hall) was finished in 1915 and the hall of worship 1929. The temple is centred around the worship of Taishakuten (sometimes called just Taishaku - written 帝釈天 or 帝釈 respectively), the Japanese name for Sakra devanam Indra (that is, the god Indra, known from Hinduism).

London city hall, designed by the Norman Foster architectural partnership, was completed back in 2002 and is home to the mayor of London and the London Assembly. Looking through to the middle of the structure you can see the helical staircase that leads to the top of the building and which every photographer would love to shoot. In fact the building was open to the public before the Covid crises but as the building is a 'working' office space much of the building was off limits to anyone choosing to drop in for a visit, including that wonderful staircase. At any rate I still haven't had a chance to photograph the inside of the building properly yet.
This was shot last winter on a camera club outing to London that I helped organise to shoot architecture, something a lot of our members don't necessarily shoot that often. I only went back to my photos from that day earlier today as I discovered that I still had 60 or 70 on my hard disk that I hadn't done any work on. So expect one or two more in the coming weeks. You have been warned.

The Celts were already extracting salt in Schwäbisch Hall around 500 B.C. The settlement of Hall is first mentioned in 1156. The "Euro of the Middle Ages", the Heller, which was minted here, was named after the town. In the 13th century Schwäbisch Hall developed into an imperial town stretching over a large area. Neither the Thirty Years’ War (1618 – 1648) nor a town fire of 1728 could permanently weaken the economic prosperity based on salt extraction and trade in salt and wine.
