Narva Town Hall
Narva raekoda
A Baroque town hall completed in 1671, one of the few historic buildings left in Narva's old town after the Second World War bombing.
The old town of Narva was once one of the most beautiful Baroque cities in the Baltic region, but it was nearly destroyed in the fighting of 1944 and was not rebuilt in its original form after the war. The town hall was built between 1668 and 1671 to designs by a Swedish architect. Its tower is topped with a stork-shaped weathervane. After the war, the exterior was restored, making it the only prominent historic building in the old town. Today it is mainly admired from outside as a city landmark, though exhibitions are occasionally held inside. It is in the central square, about five minutes' walk from the castle.
