Built in 1908 by the Grand Army of the Republic, the Hamilton County Memorial Hall building proudly stands in the heart of the revitalized arts district of Over-the-Rhine. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, recent renovations to the building, which were completed in 2015-16, have allowed for the preservation of its historic character and renewed utilization with more than 250 performances, concerts, lectures, meetings, weddings, and other events held there annually.

Although renovations were completed in 2016, preservation of the Hall is ongoing so it does not fall into disuse as it did in the second half of the last century. Thanks to our partners and donors, we are able to keep the doors open and lights on in this ”perfect gem” of a theater.

Today, with the support of the Cincinnati Memorial Hall Society and 3CDC, Memorial Hall is proud to present the “Friends of Memorial Hall” support group. It is through this initiative that we will continue our mission of preserving and celebrating the lasting history made within the walls of the Hall.

Become a Friend today at the $50+ level and 100% of your contribution will support historic preservation efforts at Memorial Hall. Through the support of our Friends, together we will protect this place of arts, culture, and community for years to come.

Memorial Hall is a collaboration of the Cincinnati Memorial Hall Society, 3CDC, and Hamilton County.
