architecture
In the center of Giesenkirchen, next to the church, the town hall forms the most important urban dominance of Konstantinplatz in historical and architectural terms.
The object is a two-storey, eaves constantly over a rectangular ground plan built brick building dating from about 1900 in neogothic forms with bright red remote shaped block structure. The building has a low basement plinth and a saddle roof with side stepped gables . The show facade is symmetrically structured in five axes and has a single-axis central projecting overhead .
The town hall building of historicism , striving for an appropriately representative design with simple means, is of great importance as a structural document for the former communal independence of the mayor of Schelsen .
