The town hall is located in a pleasant park with water fountains and rare trees that are sometimes more than a hundred years old.
The building has a long history, as it was built on the site of the former and imposing 11th century Saint Martin abbey.
It is in fact the old abbey palace of this abbey.
After the heavy bombing in May 1940, the town hall was rebuilt in the neoclassical style of the second palace, on the site of the first from 1763.

Currently, there are works in the vicinity of the town hall. The "Cour d' Honneur de l'Hotel de Ville" is a construction site and therefore only partially accessible. Several buildings on the town hall premises are being tackled, especially with a view to energy efficiency, adaptations to recent regulations and public friendliness, always with respect for heritage. This concerns the building in the Cour d'Honneur, which until recently was used by the Territorial Management department (urban planning, housing, environment, use of public space, etc.). source: tournai.be
