The Zurich City Hall was built in 1694-1698 on the site of its two wooden predecessors. The planning and execution was in the hands of a commission of the authorities under the leadership of Hans Heinrich Holzhalb. The official inauguration took place on June 22, 1698. Since 1803, the town hall has been owned by the Canton of Zurich. The meetings of the cantonal council on Monday mornings and the municipal council on Wednesday evenings are open to the public and can be followed from the public gallery.
