The G.A.R. Hall, formerly the Bull Mansion, is an historic Grand Army of the Republic Hall at 55 Pearl Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. It is an ornate Victorian Gothic/Stick style two-story granite structure, designed by noted New York City architect Calvert Vaux and built in 1876 for George and Sarah Bull. It has applied Stick style woodwork in a number of its gables. The building was sold to the GAR in 1912, with an addition made to it that was designed by Worcester architect Stephen C. Earle. It was eventually turned over to the city as a memorial to all of its war veterans, and has since changed hands and uses several times.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
