The Guildhall in Derry-Londonderry is certainly very impressive from the outside. I was delighted to see this structure and I was hoping to see how it looks inside the structure. It turned out not to be a church so I suppose the internal structure was a little different from a traditional church. There was an exhibition hall at the ground floor which featured an informative history of Derry-Londonderry. The Guildhall now functions as the meeting place of the city council of Derry-Londonderry, however this hall seems to be a little small to serve a function as important as that.

As it turns out, the second floor features a more spacious hall. There was no exhibition here in this area so you can see how big this place was. I would describe it as a small auditorium. There is a fancy pipe organ displayed in front and I figured that this place was more suited to hosting concerts. In fact, there were some seat laid out in front of the stage as if there was a small performance recently. I was impressed with this room and I thought it would have been a nice place to listen to good music. The room was also adorned by stained glass giving it that old world feel.
