Belfast City Hall is the centrepiece of the city and a powerful symbol of its civic pride. Opened in 1906, it was built in grand Baroque style to reflect Belfast’s wealth during the height of the industrial era. Inside are marble staircases, stained glass and memorials, while outside the grounds honour key moments in the city’s history, including the Titanic and those lost in the World Wars. City Hall continues to function as the seat of local government and a focal point for public gatherings and celebrations.

Assembly Buildings - Belfast
The Presbyterian Assembly Buildings stand as a reminder of Belfast’s strong Presbyterian heritage. Completed in 1905, the building served as the headquarters of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland. Its grand Baroque-style façade reflects the influence and confidence of the church during Belfast’s industrial peak. Inside were offices, meeting halls and the General Assembly chamber. Today, the building has been sensitively restored and repurposed, while still remaining an important landmark that tells the story of religion, politics and civic life in the city.
