Damme Municipio

Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

Un primo municipio, in gran parte in legno, fu costruito nel 1241, quando Damme era ancora un porto e lo Zwin non si era ancora insabbiato. Il piano terra dell'edificio fungeva da magazzino per le merci e il banco degli assessori occupava il piano superiore.

L' attuale municipio in pietra fu costruito tra il 1464 e il 1468. Le riunioni del consiglio comunale si svolgono ancora qui ogni mese nella Vierschaere. Nella Sala del Consiglio si svolgono le cerimonie nuziali civili della comunità Damse. Vari eventi e mostre si svolgono nelle sale del municipio.

Uno scalone a doppia volta con leoni e quattro torrette angolari decora la facciata frontale. Nella torre è installato un carillon di 39 campane . Notevoli anche l' orologio cittadino del 1459 e una meridiana.

Le sei statue della facciata rappresentano principalmente i conti delle Fiandre .
