Medieval Townhall

The Medieval Townhall is a MOC that combines the joy of building with the excitement of play. It features intricate building techniques, such as the Gothic-style windows, a black tree, a cart and a balcony to announce the news. The set also includes several interactive play elements, including a hidden compartment in the cart, a movable rock in the treasury's wall and a market place.

The Townhall is structured across three levels:

Medieval townhalls were central gathering places in towns and villages during the Middle Ages. These buildings served as administrative hubs where local leaders, such as mayors or town councils, held meetings and made decisions for the community. Townhalls often housed important functions, including the treasury, a small court, and spaces for public announcements or events. Architecturally, they were typically designed in a sturdy and functional style, often featuring large windows, wooden beams, and towers. They also served as important symbols of civic pride and governance. In medieval Europe, townhalls began to appear in cities and towns as centers of municipal authority, with their construction becoming more widespread during the 13th and 14th centuries.
