Saugus Town Hall

Saugus Town Hall is a 19th-century municipal building constructed of red brick with symmetrical windows and a prominent central clock tower. The structure displays classical architectural features characteristic of its era.

Construction began in 1874 with a cornerstone ceremony, and the building was officially dedicated on March 1, 1877. The project arose from the need to establish an administrative center for the growing town.

The town hall serves as a meeting place for town forums and official civic events, where residents gather to discuss matters affecting the community.

The building houses local administrative offices and is accessible to residents and visitors needing to conduct official business. Plan visits during regular business hours and expect possible wait times during busy periods.

The building was constructed on swampy ground, requiring extensive ground preparation and resulting in substantial debt for the town. This financial burden was so significant that East Saugus once considered separating from the municipality.
