This building houses the Oddfellow Temple in Salem, Illinois.
The building is in good shape, and taken care of. But there is no date to be found on the building.
The IOOF stands out on the building.
The Independent Order of Odd Fellows is a worldwide altruistic and fraternal organization that emerged during the time when there was still no welfare state and insurance companies. For more than 100 years, the IOOF has contributed for the betterment of each community and still continue to do so until now. Named "Odd Fellows" during the time when it was still "Odd" to see people working for the benefit of mankind.
