	Fohs Hall was built by Julius Fohs and given as a gift of love to Marion and the Board of Education during formal dedication ceremonies Oct. 23, 1926.    The structure was built on the lot where the Fohs family once lived in a white frame house. After Fohs had achieved success as an internationally known geologist, he paid for the entire construction of the building, which amounted to $73,081.00. The building was to be used as a community center and in conjunction with Marion High School, which was located just across the street on North Walker.    Fohs Hall is a two-story building with four columns of Ionic design flanking the main entrance. On the first floor, the building has a large central hail with large rooms on each side and the auditorium gymnasium at the halls end. The second floor contains two additional rooms, the balcony, and a projection room for the auditorium. The basement contains two large rooms which were once used as laboratories for science, agriculture and home economics, along with restrooms and dressing room facilities.    The buildings foundation is rubble masonry made from Crittenden County limestone. Workers from Tennessee prepared the foundation for the J.N. Boston and Son company, which constructed the building.    The building was selected as a Kentucky Landmark in June of 1981, and it was accepted on the National Register of Historic Places in May of 1982.
