The Old Town Hall is the seat of cultural organisations since 1954. It accomodates the BSCC from the very beginnings of the Centre (1992). Since then the interior of the Old Town Hall has been renovated several times - both to restore the original design and to preserve the historical structure of the building. Steps have been taken to adapt the building to its current function. Apart from accommodating office rooms of the BSCC, the Old Town Hall often hosts concerts, conferences, meetings, and exhibitions. 
On the first floor there is a representative Entrance Hall, the impressive Great Hall (also called Bourgeoisie Hall) - with its genuine wooden ceiling and a collection of paintings presenting Sybilla – and the sumptuously decorated Mayor’s Hall with the 17th century fittings. 

History of the building dates back to the end of the 16th century, when it was designed by Antoni van Obberghen, in the style of Netherlandish Mannerism, to be the seat of the Old Town authorities. Throughout centuries it was the centre of contemporary political, economic, scientific and social life of this part of the city. It was here that elites debated about municipal matters, celebrated official ceremonies in Great Hall, and organised balls and  banquets. The Old Town Hall is linked to the figure of a famous scientist – astronome Johannes Hevelius. It is him who stored beer in the cellars of the building.

Thanks to its specific shape, the Old Town Hall is an unique element of the architecture of Gdańsk Main Town. Despite many conversions, its shape has not changed so far.
