The Altes Rathaus (Old Town Hall) is a striking Renaissance-style building located in the heart of Füssen's historic old town. Its ornate facade features colorful frescoes depicting scenes from the city's history and coats of arms. The building dates back to the 16th century and served as the administrative center of the city for centuries. Today, it houses the tourist information office and a small museum on the upper floors.
