Town Hall Description
(Local Name: Rathaus) In the Marktplatz in Aachen is the Town Hall, built about 1350 on the foundations of the Carolingian imperial stronghold (helm roofs of towers rebuilt in 1979 to a design by Dürer), with its fine Coronation Hall (frescoes on the life of Charlemagne by A. Rethel) and copies of the imperial regalia (orb, sword, crown; originals now in Vienna). To the south of the Town Hall is the Katschhof, marking the site of the Carolingian palace courtyard.
