The marketplace forms the center of the old town. This square is framed by a colorful ring of houses with half-timbered houses from 5 centuries. The marketplace, officially named "Castenholtzplatz", was dedicated to the Linz mayor Augustin Castenholtz, who was executed by Swedish troops in 1633. The marketplace is dominated by the historic town hall, opposite which stands the St. Mary's Column, erected in 1878. At this spot once stood the Council Chapel, consecrated in 1462 and demolished in 1818, a foundation of the famous electoral chancellor and councilor Tilman Joel von Linz. The marketplace is surrounded by houses from five centuries with a rare diversity of house facades and architectural styles, including on the southwest corner an impressive double house, which counts among the most historically valuable buildings in the city. Since 1993, the marketplace has also been adorned by the bronze councilors' fountain by Aachen artist Bonifatius Stirnberg, which depicts mayors and city councilors with moving figures, always observed by the watchful eyes of the people. The eye-catcher of the Linz marketplace in the center of the old town is the historic town hall, built in 1517-27 on the site of a predecessor building first mentioned in 1462/63. The ground floor of the building, one of the oldest of its kind in Rhineland-Palatinate, was originally occupied by a large market hall, which was entered through two pointed arched entrances still recognizable today. Until 1927, the fire department was housed in the left part of the hall. Today, the meeting room is located here, and in the right part, opposite, the tourist information office is housed. The rooms on the upper floor could only be reached until the beginning of the 19th century via an external staircase on the front of the town hall. In 1833, the dilapidated staircase was demolished and a staircase was built inside. Today, a historic clockwork from the former Council Chapel from 1737 impresses visitors here.

The marketplace has been adorned since 1993 by the bronze Ratsherrenbrunnen (Councilors' Fountain) by the Aachen artist Bonifatius Stirnberg, which depicts the mayor and city councilors with moving figures, always observed by the watchful eyes of the people. The people stand above the rulers and watch them closely.
