Adolphus Busch Hall

Adolphus Busch Hall is a Harvard University building located at 27 Kirkland Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

It is named for brewer and philanthropist Adolphus Busch, former president of the Anheuser-Busch company, who contributed $265,000 to its building fund.

Its cornerstone was laid in 1912 and the building completed in 1917, but it was not opened to the public until 1921, officially because of a lack of coal.

The Busch-Reisinger was located in Adolphus Busch Hall from 1921 to 1991 and the hall continues to house the Busch-Reisinger's founding collection of medieval plaster casts, as well as an exhibition on the history of the museum.

The hall is also home to Harvard's Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies.
