Grant Hall has been Queen's University's most recognizable landmark since it was completed in 1905. It is named after the Rev George Munro Grant (1835-1902), who served as Queen’s seventh principal for 25 years. Students, fuelled by their admiration for Principal Grant and a desire to see one of his major projects completed, raised the needed funds for this building. Over the years the hall has been used for concerts, lectures, public meetings, convocations, dances and exams. For a time during WWI it was also used as a military hospital.
