Elks Club Building, American fraternal club building in Ermita, Philippines.

The two-story Elks Club Building stands along Roxas Boulevard, featuring Mission Revival architectural elements influenced by California structures.

The Manila Elks Lodge opened its first clubhouse in 1910, serving as residence for the United States High Commissioner from 1935 to 1940.

The structure represents early American colonial influence in Manila, functioning as a center for American business and social activities.

The former Elks Club Building now houses Museo Pambata, offering educational exhibits and activities for children since 1994.

This establishment was one of only two Elks Clubs created outside United States territory, with the other located in Panama.
