Athenaeum at Caltech, Faculty club building at California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, US.
The Athenaeum exhibits Mediterranean Revival architecture with stucco walls, tiled roofs, and detailed ornamental elements throughout its exterior and interior spaces.
Gordon Kaufmann designed this educational facility in 1930, creating a central meeting place for Caltech faculty, students, and distinguished visitors from scientific institutions.
The Round Table discussions at the Athenaeum bring together scientists, researchers, and academics for intellectual exchanges without emphasis on verbal competition.

The Einstein Suite within the Athenaeum housed Albert Einstein during his visits to Caltech, maintaining its original furnishings from that period.
