Bolton Hall, Historical museum and community center in Tujunga, Los Angeles, United States.

Bolton Hall is a 3,000-square-foot stone building in Tujunga built in 1913 by rock mason George Harris, who said his design borrowed nothing from European architecture. Granite chunks and stones from nearby fields, hillsides and the Tujunga Wash were set as they had settled after falling from a cliff. The main room has hardwood floors and a central rock fireplace with a 14-foot mantel cut from a single eucalyptus tree.

Bolton Hall was built in 1913 by George Harris and the Los Terrenitos settlers as a community hall for their utopian colony. It served as an American Legion hall, Tujunga City Hall, a jail, and the San Fernando Valley's second public library before closing in 1957. After more than 20 years vacant, it reopened in 1980 as a museum run by the Little Landers Historical Society.

Bolton Hall takes its name from Bolton Hall, a New York progressive activist and proponent of the back-to-the-land movement. The building was the hub of Los Terrenitos, a utopian colony where families bought an acre for $800. Today the Little Landers Historical Society runs it as a museum, displaying the gavel from early town meetings, construction tools, old photographs and the clock from Tujunga's first post office.

The building sits on a neighborhood street and is walkable from nearby areas, with interior spaces that are easy to navigate. Check ahead to find out when exhibitions or programs are scheduled to happen.

George Harris, who called himself a "nature builder", insisted the 3,000-square-foot hall use only native materials and set stones where they had settled after falling from a cliff. The fireplace mantel is a single 14-foot eucalyptus trunk inscribed "To the Spiritual Life of Soil".
