Buffalo City Hall is a masterpiece of Art Deco design that is a symbol of the City of Buffalo. Completed in 1931, City Hall features ornamentation celebrating the City of Buffalo and its people, history, and values throughout both its interior and exterior. The lobby features murals by William de Leftwich Dodge, and the Common Council Chambers are highlighted by an extraordinary sunburst skylight. Bring a group of 10 to enjoy a one-hour tour to discover the history and design of this remarkable building. The tour typically includes the lobby and Common Council Chambers. Certain areas of City Hall may be unavailable on a particular day due to meetings, press conferences, or other events. We'll arrange the tour at a date and time that you request, subject to docent availability. City Hall tours must be scheduled during City Hall business hours, Monday-Friday 9am-5pm. Certificate expires 12/31/24.
