The Lincoln Old Town Hall Corporation serves the public by preserving and managing a significant piece of Lincoln's history: The Lincoln Old Town Hall.
The Old Town Hall was built in 1848 for $2,200 near the site of the present Bemis Hall. In December 1848, at its inaugural Town Meeting, it was agreed the Hall would be “opened without charge for all Political, Temperance, Antislavery & Peace Meetings and Lecturers for Lyceum, and Singing Schools, for Picnics, Fairs and Sabbath School celebrations and for all Literary & Scientific Lecturers.”
