Beautiful old town hall right by the Marienplatz - it's a white gothic styled building connected to a clock tower. There's several of openings to walk through. The town hall itself is a museum with some very interesting things inside.

Very nice small museum dedicated to toys. Great for all ages. Entrance is right off of the main Marienplatz square and as you get higher in the museum, you have some great views of the surrounding areas. The museum is located in a tower with several floors filled with displays of toys. You can either walk up a narrow, winding staircase or take a small elevator. The Entrance fee was 6 euros for adults. I spent almost an hour looking at the various displays with most of them having English information along with the German information. There is a small souvenir shop on the ground level. The toy displays cover a number of different toy types. They mainly included European and some American toy makers. They had train sets, Teddy bears, and numerous dolls including a whole display featuring Barbie dolls. Very nice and worth a visit with or without kids.
