City Hall (Oranjestad)
Cultural heritage monument in Aruba / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
City Hall (also known as the Eloy Arends House; Dutch: Stadhuis) is home to the civil registration of Oranjestad, Aruba. The building used to be a doctor's office and residential home of Eloy Arends. Aruba is only subdivided in regions and zones for administrative and statistical purposes, therefore, it is not a city hall defined as the seat of municipal government.[1] The city hall is used for civil registrations, passports and marriages.[2][3]
