The St Peters Town Hall is a heritage-listed town hall located in Sydenham, New South Wales, Australia. The Town Hall was built in 1927 in the Inter-War Free Classical architectural style by architects J. Campbell & Son, and replaced the 1878 St Peters Town Hall, which was located on the Princes Highway and was resumed by the state government in 1926 for road-widening. The Town Hall was the seat of St Peters Municipal Council from 1927 to 1948 and from 1949 was a branch library and community hall of the Municipality of Marrickville, which absorbed St Peters.
