Fernald Hall, Academic building at University of Massachusetts Amherst, United States
Fernald Hall contains four floors of brick construction with stone trim, featuring an H-shaped layout and classical revival architectural elements throughout the structure.
The building, completed in 1910 and designed by Boston architect C.P. Hoyt, received its name in 1921 to honor entomologist Charles H. Fernald.
The second floor houses an extensive insect reference collection of 100,000 specimens from different regions, displayed in hallway cases for educational purposes.
The first floor accommodates faculty offices, class laboratories, and the main lecture hall, while the basement contains research facilities for scientific studies.
The third floor, currently sealed due to building code requirements, contains a photographic studio with a dark room for documenting insect specimens.
