Red Bud received it charter in 1867 and was incorporated as a city in 1875. The business of the city government has been conducted in this victorian era city hall building since it was built in 1894. The city hall was designed by St. Louis architect Louis Hormann. The exterior of the city hall has remained basically the same. It houses the city offices, police department and council chambers.
Red Bud's City Hall is a significant building within the Red Bud Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places. The historic building has had several renovations. In 1997 the outside received a major facelift. Plans were made for an extensive renovation of the first and second floor. In November of 2005 this renovation was completed at a cost of $1,200,000.
