Helsingborg City Hall
Helsingborgs rådhus
A red-brick city hall in the late-19th-century neo-Gothic style. Its 65-metre clock tower is the most striking building on the harbour skyline.
Helsingborg City Hall was built in 1897 to designs by architect Alfred Hellström. Its red-brick neo-Gothic exterior is topped with spires, and the 65-metre clock tower chimes at set times every day. Inside, stained-glass windows depict scenes from the city's history. Guided tours are occasionally offered in summer, but the building is usually admired from outside. The hall faces the harbour and Stortorget square, and the lit-up building reflected in the harbour is very photogenic in the evening. It is about a 3-minute walk from Central Station, and it pairs well with Kärnan tower and St. Mary's Church on an old-town walking route.
