Old Town Hall and School, also known as the Haymarket Museum, is a historic town hall and school located at Haymarket, Prince William County, Virginia. It was built in 1883, and is a front-gable, two-story, wooden structure clad in weatherboard with Greek Revival and Victorian style decorative elements. It features a square, pyramidal-roofed belfry situated above the front gable that has louvers, sawn brackets, and gables on each face. Its use as a school stopped around 1900. It continued to serve as the Town Hall as well as a community meeting place until 2001. The building currently houses the Haymarket Museum.[3] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.[2]
