The two-storey building has seven window axes in the main view, of which the three middle ones are designed as a risalit with a representative balcony on sandstone consoles , a triangular gable with a clock and a coat of arms. The main entrance is in the risalit via an outside staircase . In the left side view there is a side entrance in a basement . The building stands on a syenite quarry stone plinth with sandstone frames as a basement floor , on top there is a hipped roof with side and rear dormers because of the roof extension and in the middle an octagonal, open roof turret with a point.

The facades are made of ocher-colored facing bricks, with corner blocks. The windows are framed by sandstone walls. In the basement they are arched in segments with a keystone. The rectangular windows on the two main floors have gable roofs on the ground floor and horizontal roofs on the upper floor, as well as ornamentation and parapet areas. The three representative windows on the upper floor of the risalit, like the main entrance underneath and the coupling window in the gable above, are rounded.

history

In 1839 the rural community Niederlößnitz was founded. Since then, the seat of the municipal administration has always been in the house of the voluntary municipal council.

After the strong population growth in the second half of the 19th century, the community decided in 1890 to employ full-time community leaders and a community police officer. In order to accommodate this, a piece of land was acquired at the north end of the Königsplatz (today Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz) after the permission was granted by the Dresden authorities in the following year and between 1892 and 1895 by the Niederlößnitz architect and master builder Adolf Neumann , who was also a member of the local council there and had applied for the building to the responsible authorities, erected the new town hall as a two-storey representative building with ancillary building. In 1908 the annex was added to accommodate a police station.

In 1923, Naundorf , Niederlößnitz and Zitzschewig merged with Kötzschenbroda to form the new large community of Kötzschenbroda in the Niederlößnitz town hall . The local council of Niederlößnitz, Oswald Hans, who had been in office there since 1904, became the local council of the large community and in 1924, with the appointment of Kötzschenbroda to town, the first mayor of Kötzschenbroda . After the merger with Radebeul to form the town of Radebeul in 1935, the building was renamed Stadthaus and housed branches of several offices, in 1943 it became the seat of the registry office.

From 1953 a day care center was located in parts of the house, and from 1971 to 1990 the entire building was used by the day nursery Rosa Luxemburg . After extensive renovation from 1991 to 1993, the Radebeul registry office was temporarily housed there, which in 2014 moved to the former Radebeul post office right next to the Radebeul town hall .
