Roye Town Hall is an architectural gem that reflects the reconstruction after the First World War. Designed by Arthur Régnier in the 1930s, the imposing building combines Art Deco with neo-regional Flemish Renaissance influences. The striking belfry, with its elegant dome and bell tower, recalls the original town hall built in 1775 but destroyed during the war. The façade is richly decorated with bas-reliefs, including the town's coat of arms and symbols of trade and industry. The entrance gate, with its graceful ironwork, is reminiscent of the Croix de Guerre cross, a silent reminder of the town's turbulent history. This town hall is not only an administrative building, but also a powerful symbol of recovery and cultural wealth.
