The IOOF Lodge No. 355, also known as the Clements Odd Fellows Hall, in Clements, California is a two-story brick building that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. [1]
The International Order of Odd Fellows group in Clements was established in 1889, seven years after the San Joaquin-Sierra Nevada Railroad reached the area and the town was founded. The charter members included a blacksmith, a rancher, a butcher, and a clerk. It met in a community hall above the blacksmith shop, then later met over the Clements store. It purchased land in 1917 and built this building the same year. [2]
It is significant "as the social hub for the town of Clements" for many years. [2]
