Northwest view

The town hall in Penzberg , a town in the Upper Bavarian district of Weilheim-Schongau , was built in 1880. The town hall at Karlstraße 25 is a protected architectural monument .

The two-storey mansard roof building with a gable-topped dwarf house and roof turret was built as a residential building and in 1921 Josef Linder rebuilt and expanded it in neo-baroque forms to make the town hall. The interior was later partially renewed.

The coat of arms of the city of Penzberg is placed in a cartouche above the entrance.

On August 18, 2009, there was a fire in the town hall, in which the entire roof structure was destroyed. The building - modernized inside - was rebuilt by December 2011 for around three million euros.
