Löbenicht Town Hall

The town hall was located at the intersection of Löbenichtsche Langgasse and Münchengasse.

It is unknown when it was originally built, but construction on the Gothic building was documented in 1592.

It was used subsequently rented by the brewery guilds and the bookseller Johann Jacob Kanter, who allowed Immanuel Kant to live in the mansard attic in 1769.

It was purchased by the printer Gottlieb Leberecht Hartung in 1788, who used it to publish his newspaper, later known as the Königsberger Hartungsche Zeitung, the following year.

The Hartungsche Zeitung and the Königsberger Tageblatt were published in the former town hall until 1906, when it was damaged by fire and the printers moved to Münchenhofplatz between Löbenicht and Altstadt.

The publisher Hartung'sche Verlagsdruckerei was based in the former Löbenicht town hall from 1789 to 1906.
