Odense's [[Odense City Hall|City Hall]] (''Odense Rådhus''), with its medieval Italian look, was designed by [[Johan Daniel Herholdt]] and [[Carl Lendorf]] in the [[Historicism (art)|Historicist]] style.

The tower over the main entrance was torn down in 1942 but was not rebuilt. As work was delayed during the war, the extension was not completed until 1955. In conjunction with Hans Christian Andersen's 200th anniversary in 2005, comprehensive renovation work was completed on the building's interiors, including the entrance halls, meeting rooms, banqueting hall and council chamber.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.odenseleksikon.dk/bygningsvaerker/om%20odense%20raadhus|title=Odense Rådhus|publisher=Historiens Hus, Odense|access-date=3 July 2014 |language=da}}</ref>
