The building of the Liberec Town Hall was built from 1888 to 1893 under the direction of the Viennese architect Franz Neumann. In five years, a palace was erected to replace the outdated small town hall that had stood on Old Town Square since 1602.
Opposite the town hall there is a small memorial in the form of a tank caterpillar. It bears the names of those killed in the August 1968 invasion. Not the most pleasant pages of Czech history, and neither of our country. Echoes of which still prevent Russians from communicating with Czechs.
