Hull City Hall

Located in Queen Victoria Square in the city centre, Hull City Hall is home to a grand central hall which plays host to a varied programme of concerts including pop, rock and classical music as well as civic functions such as graduation ceremonies for the University of Hull. The city's main Tourist Information office and shop is based on the building's ground floor.

It is a Grade II* listed building, built in Baroque Revival style by Hull's City architect Joseph Hirst 1903–09, restored c.1950 following war damage, and altered in 1986 and 1989. LinkExternal link

The exterior of Hull City Hall is decorated with twenty-six carved panels representing great artists.
