The Basel City Hall stands on the Market Square and is the seat of the state capital of Basel and the seat of the city council. Of particular note are the Town Hall, its beautiful inner courtyard, its romantic arcades and its majestic tower. The town hall has been located in this area since the 14th century, rather than the seat of the city's previous ruler, the duchy monarch who was also bishop, who lived on Chapel Hill. Not choosing the same address shows that the citizens at that time sought independence as their economic strength grew, and were no longer subject to the bishop. The craftsmen formed 15 guilds, which in 1501 carried out the decision of the municipal council to join the Swiss Confederation. To commemorate this event, at the beginning of the 16th century, the first half of the then town hall was replaced by a very famous new building. The battlements have also been renovated, surrounded by very rich colors, with 12 badges hanging, representing the 12 cantons, including Basel, which joined the Swiss Confederation at the time. At the beginning of the 17th century, the town hall was enlarged, and HansBock painted the wider and longer walls, with imitation architecture. In 1900, the town hall was further expanded, adding a annex on the left and a tower on the right. At the same time, the original rear building built in the 14th century was demolished and a new building was built. This was a period of historicism, as the architects used elements from the traditional style, some old parts and their architectural forms were incorporated into the new building, but the whole decoration was of a very new style at the time, known as Art Nouveau.
