The Salisbury Academy Building is a historic school building in Salisbury, New Hampshire. The two story wood frame building was built in 1796 to serve as an academy of higher education in the area. The building was acquired by the town in 1806 and moved from Salisbury Heights to its present location at the junction of New Hampshire Route 127 and Old Coach Road (the old alignment of US Route 4). Originally a rectangular structure, its upper floor was extended in 1883 as part of a conversion of the classrooms on that floor into a single meeting space, and now hangs over the east facade, supported by posts. From 1884 to 1965 the building was used primarily by the local Grange. It now houses town offices.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
