Town Hall Square and House of Blackheads Add an Object

Town Hall Square originated from a market square and until the 19th century was the city's

economic and administrative center, although much smaller than it is now. One of the main buildings on the square was the Town Hall, which was a three-story building with a tower and a clock. Another important building on Town Hall Square was the House of Blackheads, first mentioned in records in 1334 as the New House of the Great Guild. Initially, it was rented by merchants of the Great Guild, but later by the unmarried merchants - the brotherhood of Blackheads.
