Town Hall in Drawsko Pomorskie

The town hall in Drawsko Pomorskie stands at Eliza Orzeszkowa Square 3. The building from 1907-1909 is listed in the heritage register, and today it houses the County Office.

The building

It is a brick building on a rectangular plan: two-storey, with a cellar and a converted attic, covered by a mansard roof with dormers. The front façade is distinguished by a three-bay projecting bay with a triangular pediment on which an image of a griffin is placed. On the ridge is a semicircular skylight surrounded by an openwork balustrade, and the windows have Neo-Renaissance surrounds.

Style

The sources describe the style differently: the Wikipedia entry speaks of eclecticism, and the heritage register of the Neo-Baroque style. Both names refer to the same building, with a Neo-Baroque pediment and Neo-Renaissance details. The heritage register entry has the number A-259 of 10 April 2006.
