The City Hall (Dutch: Stadhuisⓘ) of Ghent, East Flanders, Belgium, is a four-sided complex surrounded by the Botermarkt, the Hoogpoort, the Stadhuissteeg and the Poeljemarkt.
The facades are characterized by an application of successive Doric, Ionic and Corinthian three-quarter columns and pilasters, inspired by the design of the Italian renaissance palazzi.
Other works were carried out in the 19th century, including the thorough adaptation of the late Gothic alderman's house De Keure to the taste of the day.
[3] In 1870, Adolphe Pauli [nl] carried out works of restoration, also with the collaboration of Eugène Viollet-le-Duc.
[4] Between 1880 and 1881, Charles van Rysselberghe built an intermediate section along the Poeljemarkt, between the Aldermen's House of Gedele and the Armenkamer.
