G.A.R. Memorial Hall, also known as the Algona Schoolhouse, is a historic building located in Algona, Iowa, United States. It was built as the city's first schoolhouse in 1867, and moved to this location in 1887. The two-story frame Italianate structure features a gable roof, bracketed eaves, and wood lap siding. It originally had a belfry in the center of the roof, but it was removed at some point. After the building was moved it was used by the James C.
