Krnov Town Hall / Krnovská radnice

in #architecturalphotography6 years ago (edited)

The most beautiful buildings in Krnov (Czech republic) include the local town hall with an adjoining savings bank. It is located in the city center on Main Square. In the years 1901-1903 replaced the original 16th-century town hall. She was designed by the Viennese architect Moritz Hintrager and put Ernest Latzel and Alois Geldner.

The building is two-storey with a six-story tower 52 meters high. She replicates the town hall tower in Vienna Währing. The clock comes from the hands of the Munich watchmaker J.Mannhardt, who built them in 1864. Since 2004, the tower has been open to the public for sightseeing.

Interestingly, there was court in the past in the town hall. He also handed down sentences of the death penalty.

The adjoining savings bank was built between 1906 and 1907. The author is Franz Blasch.

K nejkrásnějším stavbám v Krnově patří místní radnice s přilehlou spořitelnou. Stojí v centru města na Hlavním náměstí. V letech 1901 až 1903 nahradila původní radnici ze 16.století. Navrhl ji vídeňský architekt Moritz Hintrager a postavili Erneste Latzel a Alois Geldner.

Budova je dvoupatrová s šestipatrovou věží vysokou 52 metrů. Ta kopíruje radniční věž ve vídeňském Währingu. Hodiny pochází z rukou mnichovského hodináře J.Mannhardta, který je sestrojil v roce 1864. Od roku 2004 je radniční věž přístupná veřejnosti k prohlídce.

Zajímavostí je, že na radnici v minulosti sídlil soud, který mimo jiné vynášel i rozsudky trestu smrti.

Přilehlá spořitelna pochází z období 1906 až 1907. Jejím autorem je Franz Blasch.
