Old Town Hall, Salzburg

The area around Getreidegasse, Judengasse, and the Alter Markt dates back to the 12th Century. The buildings were lived in, as well as being sites for trade and commerce. In the 15th Century, development of this burghers' quarter was pretty much finished. The Old Townhall is situated where Getreidegasse and Judengasse are separated by the Kranzlmarkt. Built around 1400, the building was acquired by the city government some years later. Many changes and additions have been made since then. The marble portal dates from about 1600, its present appearance mainly dates back to the end of the 18th Century.
