  • 13 years ago
Take a tour of Bautzen Town Hall in Bautzen, Germany – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats. Since its initial construction in 1213 the unlucky Bautzen Town Hall in Germany has felled under three overwhelming fires. The current structure was erected in the mid 18th century; the sublime yellows steal attention from the square below. The building is, and has been since its construction, the seat of the Mayor of Bautzen. The stately black and gold clock was installed in the town hall's tower in the early 19th century. The embellished spire and columns as well as the tenacity shown in rebuilding it, are a testament to the buildings importance to the community. The hall is one of the town's focal points and as such, the square in which it resides is used by citizens as a forum for selling their local wares.
