Battle Hall, University library building in Austin, United States
Battle Hall features limestone walls, Spanish red tile roof, and extended eaves, standing prominently on the University of Texas campus at Austin.
Architect Cass Gilbert completed this structure in 1911 as the main university library, establishing design principles for future campus buildings through 1933.
The Architecture and Planning Library within Battle Hall maintains collections and archives that document the evolution of American architectural practices.
Located near the center of campus, Battle Hall contains the Alexander Architectural Archives and serves as a research facility for architecture students.
The building's cream-colored limestone from Cedar Park, Texas creates a connection between academic architecture and regional construction materials.
