radnice v Jeseníku Town hall

City Hall in Jeseník is a historic building that serves as the seat of the city office. Its original core was created in Renaissance style in 1610. The current form of the building is the result of the reconstruction from 1710. This important historical entity has been the seat of the city's representation for centuries, including the council, council and speedster.

The original building was built in a period of Central European conflicts, including the Thirty Years' War, and in a period of religious and political change. A few decades after the town hall was established, a fire hit, leading to later reconstructions.

Architecturally, it is a single-storey object of almost square ground plan with dimensions 18.8 x 23.5 meters. The construction is divided into three paths with medium mazhaus. The facades are regularly rhythmised by window axes; The shorter front has five, while the longer one has six. On the top floor, the windows are framed by the mould paneling and on the ground floor, there is a shallow horizontal bosání. A significant element is a simple mannerist porticus with a broken triangular front. The entire building is covered by a wall roof from the local slate, which is supplemented by small ventilation arc loops. The eight-sided mannerist tower with a baroque three-stage onion helmet appears from the central part of the roof.

The history of City Hall is linked to the important events of the city. In addition to the headquarters of the city administration, the building served for inquisition negotiations during the witch trials. Another interesting thing is the condition of the window openings on the ground floor, which were walled up in the 18th and 19th centuries. Only small ventilation vents and a single window located on the right side of the entrance remained from the original openings.

At present, the town hall is primarily performing representation functions and is based in the city office Jeseník. Historical architecture and connection with the history of the city make it an interesting destination for visitors. This monument is worth a tour of anyone looking for authentic traces of the past in the heart of the city.
