Built in 1957, Medford's National Guard Armory Building replaced the 1923 Armory building which was located at the northeast corner of Bartlett and Third streets; the original armory was destroyed by fire in 1950. The current armory was built with 37,000 square feet of space. A $1 million renovation project in 1991 added 8,700 square feet.

This installation is home to these Oregon Army National Guard Units:

  • Company A 1 Battalion 186 Infantry 41 Brigade Combat Team
  • Company F (-) 141 Support Battalion 41 Brigade Support Battalion

The facility also holds many events, including a flea market, a growers & crafters market and a roller derby.
