Głubczyce Town Hall - a Renaissance building in Głubczyce, Głubczyce County, Opole Voivodeship; in Poland. The first mention of a town hall in Głubczyce was in 1383, when a thirteenth-century townhouse was reconstructed into the town hall.[1] The town hall's Renaissance architectural style structure and attic style was built in 1570.[2] Reconstructions in the years of 1863-1864 and 1936, gave the building its Neo-Gothic architectural style. The town hall's decorative statues and towers were built in the nineteenth century. The town hall was renovated in 2006, partly funded by the European Union.[3]
