The first town hall was built in the Middle Ages, but its contemporary shape is due to repeated reconstructions. The oldest preserved fragment is the so-called "Gothic hall" from 1556 - with a net vault over the north-eastern part of the ground floor. Wschowa experienced numerous fires, which significantly damaged the town hall. As a result of these events, it was rebuilt several times, while maintaining Gothic elements and rebuilding to remove the damage. In the years 1860-1862, the town hall was rebuilt with elements of "English neo-Gothic", adding a characteristic clock tower and an ornamental roof. The representative façade contains the city's coat of arms, and the shape emphasizes the importance of the town hall as a municipal institution and symbol of power.

The first mention of the town hall in Wschowa dates back to 1435, but it took on its current appearance during the reconstruction in the years 1860–1870. It was given an eclectic shape at that time. In the north-eastern corner of the town hall, a hall covered with an elaborate net vault from the first half of the 16th century (Gothic hall) has been preserved on the ground floor. The former coat of arms of the city is located on the pediment of the town hall. It depicts the scene of the coronation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Below it is a double Jagiellonian cross with two rings.
