Wellesley Town Hall is located at 525 Washington Street in Wellesley, Massachusetts. Occupying a prominent location in Hunnewell Park near the town's central business district, this Romanesque stone building was designed by Shaw & Hunnewell and built between 1881 and 1886. Its construction was funded by, and it was built on land donated by, H. H. Hunnewell. The east end of the building, which was finished first, was opened as the public library in 1883, whose initial collection was also funded by Hunnewell. The building is a striking example of the then-fashionable Richardsonian Romanesque, although it also exhibits French Chateau features seen by the architects during travels in Europe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MACRIS inventory record for Wellesley Town Hall )〕 The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.〔 File:Wellesley MA Town Hall 02.jpg|East façade File:Wellesley MA Town Hall 03.jpg|North façade File:Wellesley MA Town Hall 04.jpg|West façade File:Wellesley MA Town Hall 06.jpg|South façade File:Wellesley MA Town Hall 05.jpg|Southwest corner File:Wellesley MA Town Hall 07.jpg|Southeast corner ==See also== *National Register of Historic Places listings in Norfolk County, Massachusetts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wellesley Town Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
