I.O.O.F. Hall (Mokelumne Hill, California)

The I.O.O.F. Hall, a historic landmark in Mokelumne Hill, California, is recognized as the first three-story building constructed outside the coastal towns of the state. Originally built in 1854 as a two-story structure, it was expanded in 1861 by the Odd Fellows, who celebrated the completion with a grand ball. This building has survived significant events, including a fire in 1855, and continues to serve as a vibrant community hub, with the first floor featuring the lively Hole in the Wall bar, making it a must-visit for tourists and researchers interested in California's rich history.
