The Old Masonic Hall in Louisville, Mississippi, also known as Community House, and as Chamber of Commerce, is a historic building built in 1851. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994[1] and was designated a Mississippi Landmark in 2007.[2] It is a notable example of Greek Revival style architecture.[1]

The building was constructed by Louisville Lodge No. 75 (a local Masonic lodge). Originally, the upper floor was used as a meeting hall for the lodge, while the lower floor housed the Masonic Female Institute. The lower floor was subsequently used as school and a community center. In 1922 the Masons moved to a new location, and the building was sold to the City of Louisville. Since 1958 it has housed the local Chamber of Commerce.[3]
