A guildhall, also known as a "guild hall" or "guild house", is a historical building originally used for tax collecting by municipalities or merchants in Great Britain and the Low Countries. These buildings commonly become town halls and in some cases museums while retaining their original names.
Guildhall, kereskedők szövetkezetének, egyesületének, iparosok céheinek háza, az összejövetelek számára tágas, nagy helyiségekkel, gyűléstermekkel, levéltárral stb. A londoni városházát szintén Guildhallnak hívják.[1]
A londoni Guildhall
[szerkesztés]A Guildhall (ang. e. : gildlál), London ősi belvárosának, a City-nek tanácsháza. A régi épület 1666-ban (a nagy tűzvész alkalmával) leégett, a mai épület részletei különböző időkben épültek. Legnevezetesebb látványosságai a Hall, nagy fafaragványaival. [2]
In the United Kingdom, a guildhall is usually a town hall: in the vast majority of cases, the guildhalls have never served as the meeting place of any specific guild. A suggested etymology is from the Anglo Saxon "gildSablon:-", or "payment"; the guildhall being where citizens came to pay their rates. The London Guildhall was established around 1120.[3] For the Scottish municipal equivalent see tolbooth.[4]
