Soissons Town Hall

Highlight • Historical Site

Housed in the former Hôtel de l’Intendance (1775), built on the site of the medieval castle of the Counts of Soissons. The neoclassical building became the town hall in 1834 after the destruction of the previous one. The building has an impressive façade with turrets and statues of historical figures. Inside, original salons, boiseries and a monumental staircase have been preserved – a tangible reminder of the administrative role of Soissons under the Ancien Régime.
