The original 14th-century Gothic town hall with vertically stacked halls was ravaged several times, including in 1381, 1485, 1549 and the last quarter of the 16th century; restored in 1598-99. Renovated in 1752-53 in Louis XV style with a plastered facade, central bay accentuated by a wrought iron balcony on the main floor, ending in a triangular pediment; segmental arch windows.
