The old town hall in Mannheim is on the southern edge of the market square in square G 1 . The former administration building, together with St. Sebastian's Church and the bell tower in between, forms a baroque double building erected at the beginning of the 18th century . The building ensemble is an example of Mannheim symmetry. The first town hall building with a city scale was built soon after the city was founded in 1607. This previous building was destroyed in the great city fire of 1689 during the Palatinate War of Succession . On September 17, 1700, the foundation stone for the new town hall was laid at the same location. The building was built according to plans by Anton Bailleux under Johann Jakob Rischer .
