The dome of the New Town Hall, with its observation platform, is  high. The dome's lift is unique in the world in that its arched course follows the parabolic shape of the dome. It is often incorrectly described as a sloping lift up the dome and compared with the lifts in the Eiffel Tower, which actually travel diagonally only, without changing their angle of inclination.
The New Town Hall's dome has an elevated observation platform that provides a high vantage point. The unique lift within this structure features a curved path that mirrors the dome's parabolic shape. This elevator is often mischaracterized as a sloping device ascending the dome and compared to those found in the Eiffel Tower, which actually move diagonally without changing their angle of inclination.
