A one time find of pottery found during archaeological excavations.
As early as 1399 there was talk of a 'raithuys' on the Markt. On July 16, 1554, a city fire reduced the city center to ashes and also destroyed the town hall. It was rebuilt in the following years. Around 1700, the town hall underwent a major renovation with the current facade. From then on it also served as a meeting place for the States of the Overkwartier of Gelre. In 1695, construction of a knight's chamber began. In 1876, the facade of the town hall was cemented according to a plan by the architect Ch. Weber. In 1905, the town hall was thoroughly restored and expanded, including a new council chamber. From October 1953 to 1955, renovations were carried out and the Markt 32 building was added to the town hall. Later, new construction was built behind the town hall (basement and four floors).
In the tower of the town hall there is a glockenspiel or carillon, on top of which rotating statues pass by. The carillon was donated in 1982 on the occasion of the 750th anniversary of the city of Roermond. In 1995, the chimes were supplemented with a group of moving images that rotate around the town hall tower every day at noon.
