San Francisco City Hall is a historic building in the beaux-arts style that exemplifies the American Renaissance and City Beautiful movement from the late 1880s to the 1910s. It's also the seat of the San Francisco city and county government. The building occupies over 500,000 square feet, more than 2 city blocks. 

The Rotunda and the grand staircase are a major attraction for architecture enthusiasts and provide outstanding photo ops. It's been featured in blockbuster films such as "Raiders of the Lost Ark," "Dirty Harry," "A View to a Kill," "Foul Play," and "Invasion of the Body Snatchers."

Highlights of San Francisco City Hall

San Francisco City Hall opened in 1899 after 27 years of work in planning and constructing. As large as it is, it's actually much smaller than the original building it replaced. Over the years, many prominent politicians have lain in state here including General Frederick Funston and Governor James Rolph. 

It was the site of Marilyn Monroe's marriage to Joe DiMaggio, saw demonstrations and speeches during the Civil Rights movement, and survived the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. Today it's open to the public and offers tours to learn about its architecture and history.
