February 2007: Fribourg - L'Hôtel de Ville




L'Hôtel de Ville - City Hall - bears late-Gothic traits. Originally, it was conceived to function as a granary. Note that Master Hermann (1501) started construction and Hans Felder completed it in 1522. It is located within Fribourg's old part of town and today seats the Cantonal Parliament and Court.
You can find there this wonderful bas-relief honouring the soldiers dead at the WWI
