The Scranton Armory, also known as the Colonel Louis Watres Armory, is an impressive Romanesque Revival-style building located within Scranton. This 102,000 square foot brick and stone fortress was the previous home to the 13th Regiment of the National Guard. Most recently used as a private museum for renowned artist Hunt Slonem . This unique building is composed of three main sections: the front castle-like structure, the central drill hall, and the 2-story building on the east side of the drill hall.
