Parking near Stadhuis

In the early 20th century, Rotterdam was growing rapidly and needed a new city hall that would reflect the city's modern character. Architect Henri Evers designed the building in a Beaux-Arts style. It has classical elements such as arches, columns and an imposing clock tower. Inside, you will find a beautiful, serene courtyard with an attractive garden. In the hall you will see marble floors, stained-glass windows and impressive murals that tell the city's rich history. It was officially inaugurated in 1920.

During the 1940 bombing of Rotterdam, much of the city centre was reduced to rubble. The city hall, a symbol of stability, miraculously remained standing. To this day, it is one of the few historical buildings that recalls pre-war Rotterdam.

Rotterdam City Hall is not just another administration building. It is a place where history is made. Weddings, official receptions and important meetings take place here. Several mayors are sworn in here, royal guests are welcomed and the city governs democracy from this heart.

A visit to the city hall can be perfectly combined with several sights in Rotterdam. The city hall is located at the Stadhuisplein. At this cosy square you will find several terraces and cafés. So you can enjoy a drink with a view of the beautiful building. The Schouwburgplein is located close to the city hall. It is a lively square surrounded by the Rotterdamse Schouwburg, Pathé Schouwburgplein cinema and several restaurants.

Rotterdam's city hall is more than an administrative centre, it is a living monument connecting the city's past, present and future.
