This was built in 1480, for the archduke. It was also made for a place for the Emperor to stay if he ever came to vist, but haha, he never did. The columns on the side are even older than the building; they are from the Roman Ages...10th or 11th century. In english this place is called The House of the Golden Goose (I dont remember how to say all of that in German).
This is the same building--notice the left side and how crooked the building is!
The town was very competitive with the archduke, so the people decided to build a cityhall that looks very similar to the archduke's just to prove they could build something as great. This building also has Roman columns at the door. This is where the mayor would have lived.
In June the city is hosting a HUGE soccer (American soccer) tournament! They have this sign in the middle of the city counting down the tage (days), hours, and minutes until game time! 124 more tage!
...by the way, these pictures go with the blog below this and there are even more pictures on the blog above!
