Bob Hope Patriotic Hall, Military museum in Los Angeles, United States

The Bob Hope Patriotic Hall is a ten-story museum building dedicated to honoring military service members and displaying uniforms, documents, and memorabilia from various conflicts. The collections provide an overview of military history through personal items and historical artifacts.

Patriotic Hall was dedicated by the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors in 1925 and opened to the public in 1926, built on land deeded by Civil War veterans to serve veterans of the Indian Wars, Spanish–American War and World War I and to support the Grand Army of the Republic. At 85,000 square feet it stood as the city's tallest building for seven years. It was renamed Bob Hope Patriotic Hall on November 12, 2004, and a renovation completed in 2013 cost $46 million.

The entrance vestibule displays a three-panel mural created by A.J. Leitner depicting United States military personnel from 1776 to 1941 through the Works Progress Administration. The artwork tells the military story through images that visitors encounter immediately upon entering the building.

The hall stands at 1816 S. Figueroa Street, one block from the Metro A Line station at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and under a mile from LA Live. It is visible from the Santa Monica and Harbor freeways. As a service center, walk-ins are welcome; veterans' organizations inside offer mental health support, case management and employment help.

Much of the artifact collection, valued at over $1 million, belongs to American Legion Post 8 and is held in display cases. It includes historic flags and weapons, original oil paintings by naval artist Arthur Beaumont, and uniforms worn by Winston Churchill, General George Patton and General Norman Schwarzkopf.
