Town Hall or City Hall of Lagos

The Town Hall (or City Hall of Lagos) is in the pedestrianized historical center, in Plaza Gil Eannes. The building was built in 1798 (a time of reconstruction after the devastating earthquake), backed by a medieval cloth wall. However, the current look is not of that date as the building caught fire and was rebuilt in 1884. Since then it has undergone successive renovations to accommodate today's municipal offices (formerly the Town Hall was where today stands the Messe Militar). Inside is the tourist information office.
