Manchester Town Hall
Manchester, UKAbout
Manchester Town Hall, Albert Square, 0161 234 5000, [5], Mon-Fri 9AM-5PM, call in advance to make sure. This imposing and beautiful neo-Gothic masterpiece by Alfred Waterhouse is the official headquarters of the Manchester City Council, but its job is largely ceremonial now. Most of the offices have moved to the more practical extension next door. The Town Hall shows the power Manchester commanded during the peak of the Industrial Revolution with its grand rooms and lavish decoration, including the famous Madox Murals in the Great Hall. Free entry, a small fee for guided tours.
