From this building to have survived the massive stone tower, which is now considered the oldest building of Delft. In 1536, at the city hall tower clock was installed with four faces of the work of the Delft masters. Over the years of its existence, the town hall burned a few times, a huge fire happened in 1536, when miraculously survived the tower, but after a fire in 1618, it was decided to completely rebuild the town hall.
