The 16th century city hall in Nijmegen is on the main Burchtstraat, which is the street heading west from the Grote Markt Damaged in the bombings of World War II, it was restored in 1953, when the paintings of the gable were restored. The exterior is decorated with statues of leaders and rulers of Nijmegen, including the Roman emperor Trajan (Nijmegen is a former Roman site). It is Renaissance with Dutch details like a stepped gable and bulbous-domed cupola. It is no longer used as the city hall, but the interior has been historically restored and is open for tourists and weddings.
