| The I.O.O.F. Hall
The I.O.O.F. Hall was originally built in 1851 as the Mountain Rose Lodge of the Independent
Order of Odd Fellows. Completely destroyed by fire in 1854, the hall was rebuilt almost
immediately and managed to survive the following terrible fires of 1856 and 1859. After the
society joined with the Grass Valley lodge, they deeded the building to the town for use as a
community center. |
