Additional Details:
The historic Hall of Philosophy, or "Hall in the Grove," stands in the forest reservation called St. Paul's Grove. The original building, modeled after the Parthenon at Athens, has been reconstructed and made a permanent memorial to the founders of Chautauqua. It was erected by popular subscription, and the cost, including the balustrade and approach, was about $20,000
