Rogers Hall, Greek Revival landmark in Florence, Alabama.

Rogers Hall stands as a three-story brick structure at 500 Court Street, featuring symmetrical columns and grand windows characteristic of Greek Revival design.

Built between 1854 and 1855 for George Washington Foster, the mansion served as a temporary residence for both Union and Confederate officers during the Civil War.

The building, originally known as Courtview, represents the architectural preferences of wealthy Southern planters in the pre-Civil War period of American history.

Located at the highest point in Florence, Rogers Hall now functions as part of the University of North Alabama campus, open for educational activities.

The construction required special permission from the Alabama Legislature due to its location potentially blocking a major street in Florence.

Location: Alabama

Architectural style: Greek Revival architecture
