The town hall was built in the 18th century by combining three originally separate residential plots. The western façade was redesigned as a unified structure after the merger. The core of the Gothic atrium dates from the 14th and 15th centuries, while the façade dates back to the 18th century. The building was inhabited by the noble Mautner family before being acquired by the town in 1439. The façade features the Burghausen town coat of arms, with the Bavarian heraldic symbols of diamonds and lions above it.

The approach from Austria (Ettenau) is a bit tricky. It ends in a very steep ramp on a busy federal highway. So leave your bikes at the bottom or take a wide detour and enter the town square via the Laufen Gate. Have fun, visit the Ponlach Graben, the castle with its interesting museum, and the cafés on the town square and in the castle. The walk is worth it.
