Tourist Information Office/Town Hall, Herxheim
The town hall, located in the center of the village, is accessible at ground level and is therefore barrier-free. Thanks to an elevator, all floors and rooms are also accessible to wheelchair users.
The town hall houses the usual government services. The tourist office is also located here on the ground floor, providing all tourist information as well as brochures relevant to tourism and, in some cases, its own products featuring the Herxheim logo.
