Built about 1848, this large red brick and white columned building is now known as the Vaughan-Smitherman Museum. Since it's original construction by the Masonic order to house a school, the building has been used as a Confederate hospital, courthouse and a regional hospital. The building is now owned by the city and named after Selma's long time mayor, Joseph T. Smitherman and Dr. Samuel Watkins Vaughan, founder of the Vaughan Hospital.
