About
For years, the Eindhoven city council and the majority of the civil servants lived in an old villa. Construction of a new town hall began in 1948. Now a part of the new city hall is ready and it is opened by the mayor, mr. H.A.M.T. Kolfschoten, in the presence of several dignitaries including the minister of the interior, dr. L.J.M. Beel. SHOTS: - Ext. old building; - ext. new town hall; - int. new town hall: corridors, offices, mayor's room with antique clock, wedding room; - the group of dignitaries walks along the street towards the new town hall; - on the pavement the architect, ir. Van der Laan(?), offers the key to Kolfschoten who opens the door; - a large crowd of interested people stands in front of the building and sees how the flag is unfurled on the facade.
