Built in the Baroque style, it was originally the mayor’s chapel; the first Mass for the city’s officials was celebrated here. The officials would follow the church services from the State Room, above the Hall. The chapel is linked to the Town Hall’s Gothic Room by double doors.
The current chapel was built in 1601 to replace an older chapel, of which part of the 14thcentury apse remains, and it was restored in the early 20th century. Several religious confraternities used to meet in the chapel, the most famous of which was the Brotherhood of St George. The Hall was used for a variety of non-religious purposes, including the drawing of lotteries and the announcement of election results, before becoming an exhibition space.

Visiter pour l'exposition Longo, où les oeuvres exposées étaient impressionnantes, belles et intéressantes à regarder. En ce qui concerne la salle d'exposition, elle est assez petite mais densément remplie

L'exposition Longo est très intéressante. Outre le matériau utilisé, les oeuvres ont un intérêt artistique, l'artiste parvenant à transmettre ses émotions.

This room, historically linked to the Town Hall of Mons, hosts exhibitions mainly focused on the theme ''culture and society''. The St. George's Hall designates the building located to the left of the Town Hall and communicating with it on the upper floor. It is built in Baroque style. This room once formed the aldermen's oratory, where the first mass was celebrated for the benefit of city officials. It was from the Salon des Estates, located on the first floor of the Salle Saint-Georges and at the end of the Gothic hall of the Hôtel de Ville, that the authorities followed the religious services, thanks to a double door leaf opening onto the Scabina - chapel.
