Laird Hall

Hoernemann

Laird Hall was completed in 1913, built with funds provided by Della Shawhan Laird, widow of a prosperous Tiffin businessman. Originally built to house all sciences taught at Heidelberg, Laird has accommodated only the Department of Biology, the extensive Charles H. Jones Collection of Minerals (donated to a Cleveland museum in 1988) and the Biology Museum since the completion of Bareis Hall in 1964.
