Alma College, Educational heritage property in St. Thomas, Canada

The college building featured a three-story stone structure with multiple hallways, an amphitheater, and dedicated spaces for various academic activities.

Founded in 1881 as a Methodist women's institution, Alma College operated until 1988 when it closed following a prolonged teachers' strike.

The college colors of blue, gold, and crimson represented the main educational focus areas of literature, art, and music instruction.

Students gathered in the main building for classes, performances, and social events until a fire in 2008 resulted in complete demolition.

The former educational institution became a filming location for multiple productions, including Disney's Mr. HeadMistress and the movie Silent Hill.
