Alexander Hall is a concert and assembly venue on the Princeton University campus designed in a style inspired by H. H. Richardson's architecture, marked by distinctive turrets and warm brownstone walls. The interior accommodates about 900 people and features a professional performance stage with modern acoustic enhancements and notable decorative elements.

The building was completed in 1894 from a design by architect William Appleton Potter and was funded by a large donation from a longtime university supporter's family. The gift was given to honor three generations of university leaders who had shaped the institution's growth.

The building houses the Richardson Auditorium, where students and visitors regularly attend classical music performances and university gatherings. The venue became a gathering place for the university's artistic and intellectual community.

The venue is easily reached from outside campus and offers accessible entry and seating for extended events. It is wise to arrive early when attending popular concerts or large university gatherings to secure a good spot.

Inside, an ornate Tiffany Glass mosaic depicting scenes from Homer's works hangs above the entrance as a hidden jewel of decorative art. The artwork was created by sculptor J. Massey Rhind and displays the handcrafted artistry of an earlier era.
