Mulhouse
Town Hall
Description
At the Place de la Réunion, you can see the many Renaissance walls, including the elegant turret of the ‘Maison Mieg’ (1560) as well as those of the town hall (1552). On the latter’s façade, you’ll notice a reproduction of the ‘Klapperstein’. This stone, the original of which is kept in the town’s historical museum, was initially kept in the church; the pastor would hang it on liars’ necks as part of the ecclesiastical and civil discipline in this Calvinist Republic.
