The town hall in Mühlheim an der Donau , a town in the Tuttlingen district in Baden-Württemberg , was built around 1400, shortly after the Lords of Enzberg took over the town . From 1840 to 1844 the rear part of the Hinteren Strasse was demolished and rebuilt. The town hall at Hauptstraße 16 is a protected cultural monument .

The two-storey half - timbered building with a gable roof has an open columned hall on the ground floor, where salt and grain were sold, and a roof turret . The bell in the roof turret bears the year 1416. It bears the inscription: "This Gloegli is made by Hans Klain in rotwil anno MCCCC XVI". From 1802 to 1845 the town hall also served as a school building.

The wall decoration comes from Tobias Weiß from Nuremberg, the execution of the sgraffito painting is from Speck from Wurmlingen .
