Description

Reynolds Hall is the second oldest structure on campus. It was built in 1851 using locally fired bricks and slave labor. The town agreed to give the building to the Alabama Girls’ Industrial School so long as the state located the school in the city of Montevallo. It was named for the school’s first president, Captain Henry Clay Reynolds (1896-1899), who hired the school’s first faculty, recruited students, and energetically prepared the building for educational purposes.
