Omkring år 1900 var der over 4.000 indbyggere i Birkerød . Det kommunale selvstyre fik mange nye opgaver som f.eks. elforsyning, vandforsyning, gasforsyning og spildevand. Den offentlige sektors vokseværk krævede mere plads og et rådhus måtte bygges.
Byens gårdejere skænkede kommunen ”Grams Dam” ved Kongevejen, et gadekær som blev opfyldt. Den 14. august 1924 blev grundstenen lagt til et rådhus, der var tegnet af den unge arkitekt Ove Huus.
Rådhuset kostede 120.000kr og borgerne mente, at det var alt for stort til de 4 ansatte i administrationen. Senere flyttede brandvæsnet ind og et sprøjtehus blev bygget omtrent der, hvor cachen befinder sig.
På trods af den megen plads blev der alligevel for trangt. Der blev tilføjet et anneks til det gamle rådhus men i 1980 måtte man flytte rådhuset til nye, moderne bygninger ved banen.

By 1900 there were over 4,000 residents in Birkerød. The local government made many new tasks as electricity, water, gas and sewage. The public sector growing required more space and a town hall had to be built.
The local farm owners donated the municipality "Grams Dam" at the King's Road, a pond that were filled. On 14 August 1924, the cornerstone was laid for a town hall, which was designed by the young architect Ove huus.
City Hall cost 120.000kr and people thought it was too big for the 4 employees in public administration. Later moved the fire brigade in and an engine house was built in the approximate area where the cache is located.
Despite the oversized building the administration one day grew out of the building. There was added an annex to the old town hall but in 1980 they had to move city hall to new modern buildings.
