About the New Town Hall (Munich)
In Munich, Bavaria, Germany, the New Town Hall (Neues Rathaus) closes off the northern side of Marienplatz. It is the seat of the city government, with the city council, the mayors' offices and a small part of the administration. The municipality moved there from the Old Town Hall in 1874. Space had run short in the Old Town Hall, and a neo-Gothic design was chosen as a recollection of the heyday of the bourgeoisie in the Gothic era, giving an architectural accent independent of the royal family's buildings.
Georg Hauberrisser won an idea competition for the first section, and work began in 1867. The city later bought the adjoining properties, and a second section, at the Dienerstrasse and Landschaftstrasse corner, was built from 1889 to 1892. In 1898 the extension began with the tower, the Rathausturm, again under Hauberrisser, and by December 1905 the third section's shell stood complete, topped out with the keystone on the tower. Brussels' Town Hall clearly inspired Hauberrisser; its Brabantine Gothic tower, 96 meters high, is the work of Jan van Ruysbroeck, from 1449 to 1455.
The brick and shell limestone complex has six courtyards and 400 rooms. The ornate main facade facing Marienplatz portrays Henry the Lion and nearly the whole Wittelsbach line that ruled Bavaria, the biggest cycle of princes in any German town hall. The tower is 85 m high and crowned by the Münchner Kindl. Its clockwork, the fifth-largest in Europe, was first heard in 1908, and its 43 bells play four melodies. After minimal damage in the 1944 air raids, the building was repaired, and at the end of the 1990s it was reconstructed identically.
