Old Town Hall is an historic town hall on 1307 Main Street in Athol, Massachusetts.
The hall was built in 1828 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
It was the town's fourth meeting house and was built for "public worship of god forever."
It was remodelled in 1847 to be used as the town hall, and kept this use until 1921. A Women's Club occupied the building between 1821 and 1957, and the Athol Historical Society has occupied it since then.
It remains an important tourist attraction for Athol and is included in their historical trail. The building features a display of local historic artifacts and is open to the public on Sunday afternoons in June and July.
