The new Dresden town hall is a pretty impressive complex with multiple inner courtyards on the 'Altmarkt' , Dresden's large central square. It was erected between 1905 and 1910 by Karl Roth after the old town hall had become too small for the expanding town. The 1744 Old Town Hall at the northwest side of the Altmarkt was completely destroyed during the allied bombardments of February 1945. The new town hall was also badly damaged during the same bombardments but it was rebuilt between 1948 and 1952 but the historical structure is gone forever as only the octagonal tower was rebuilt accurately. The rest exists today in a simplified form.
