The Elliot Mansion (now Elliot Hall or the Elliot Center) is a historic house at 229 Main Street in Keene, New Hampshire. The three story brick building was built c. 1810 by William Wyman, and was described as the "finest house in town". The building has a main facade of restrained elegance; its entry is flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a large fanlight window, with moulding surrounding all. There is a portico topped by a low balcony sheltering the entrance. The interior has woodwork, paneling and wallpapering that appear to be original, although there have also been murals drawn on some of its walls by Barry Faulkner. William Wyman died in 1811; the house was associated for many years with the Elliot family, who lived there from 1845 to about 1892, when the building was converted for use as a hospital. It was acquired by Keene State College in 1972; it now houses a variety of student support offices.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
