Gradska vijećnica

Predstavlja najljepši i najreprezentativniji objekat iz austrougarskog perioda građen u pseudomaurskom stilu. (U ovom stilu rađena je većina objekata što ih je u Sarajevu ostavila austrougarska vlast, sinonim za austrougarski period u BiH: zaštitni znak tog vremena). Prvi projekat je uradio Karl Paržik, a kako se ovaj nije svidio ministru B. Kalaju, izrada novog je povjerena Alexandru Witeku. Kao uzor u izradi ovog projekta poslužila mu je džamija Kemala II zbog čega je dva puta odlazio u Kairo. Kako je A. Witek navodno, upravo zbog ovog projekta, umno obolio i izvršio samoubistvo, završetak njegovog projekta je povjeren 1894. godine Ćirilu M. Ivekoviću. Uporedo sa izradom i razradom projekta tekla je i izgradnja objekta od 1892. do 1894. godine. Objekat gradske vijećnice zvanično je predat na upotrebu 1896. godine.
