It is expected that old towns such as Boulogne have ancient structures that are attractive and charming in their own antiquity. These buildings give a town its identity that often attracts people to come and visit. One of these is the Hotel-de-Ville or the Town Hall, which is regarded as one of the greatest monuments in Boulogne-sur-Mer.
The Town Hall is one of the good-looking and old buildings that are situated right in the heart of old seaside town that is still walled until this very day. Constructed in the 18th century, the Town Hall is one of the best examples of the fine style in architecture that is adopted in almost all of the ancient buildings in the town. As one of the monuments in Boulogne-sur-Mer, the magnificent building, which still serves as a centre for the administration of the town to this present date, also holds a variety of exhibitions that have different local themes.
