Silliman Hall is the oldest standing building on the Silliman University campus and one of the most distinctive pieces of American colonial architecture in the Philippines. Built in 1904 in the Stick style — a decorative wooden architectural tradition common in New England in the late 19th century — it looks like nothing else on the island.
The building now houses the Silliman University Anthropology Museum, which holds a collection of artefacts from the indigenous peoples of Negros Oriental and the surrounding islands: ritual objects, weaving, and everyday items from communities who were already well-established on the island long before the Spanish arrived. The museum is small but thoughtfully arranged, and entrance is free for those visiting the campus.
