Adolphus Busch Hall, Germanic architectural center at Harvard University in Cambridge, United States
The Germanic-style building features stone walls, tall windows, and a courtyard with a bronze replica of the Brunswick Lion monument.
Completed in 1917, the hall was funded by Anheuser-Busch president Adolphus Busch with a donation of 265,000 dollars for Harvard's Germanic Museum.
The building houses medieval plaster casts from German-speaking regions and serves as home to the Center for European Studies at Harvard University.
Visitors can access the hall on Wednesdays from 1 PM to 5 PM and Saturdays from 10 AM to 2 PM, with the garden open weekdays.
The hall contains a Flentrop pipe organ that gained recognition through recordings by organist E. Power Biggs during the 20th century.
