Town hall and Altbach in Dettelbach
Portal with arbor and choir

The town hall in Dettelbach , a town in the Lower Franconian district of Kitzingen ( Bavaria ), was built around 1512. The town hall at Rathausplatz 1 is a protected architectural monument .

description

The late Gothic building that was erected over the Altbach has a street passage. This passage is marked with the year 1512, but the completion of the construction work is assumed for a few years later. On the eaves-side facade, a high, double flight of stairs leads to the portal , in front of which an arbor and on top of it a polygonal choir with tracery windows rises. The window structure of the town hall is arranged asymmetrically. Inside, the council chamber with bay window and forecourt is well preserved.

The town hall in Volkach , built a little later, is very similar to that in Dettelbach.
