Baker Memorial Hall, Academic building at University of the Philippines Los Baños, Philippines

The two-story Baker Memorial Hall contains multiple sports facilities including volleyball, badminton, basketball courts, an archery range, swimming pool, and tennis courts.

Between 1943 and 1945, the building functioned as an internment camp housing 2,500 American and Allied prisoners of war during World War II.

The National Historical Institute designated Baker Memorial Hall as a historic site in 2005, marking the 60th anniversary of the Los Baños raid.

The hall stands at the intersection of Mangga and Chico Road, serving as a central location for university ceremonies and athletic training programs.

Future plans include converting the hall into a museum and integrating it into the Mariang Makiling Eco-Tourism Village under the university tourism strategy.
