Description

Exterior front view of Marion Female Seminary in Marion, Alabama. The image has a "X" marked over one of the windows. The Marion Female Seminary was established in 1836, with this building completed in 1850. It was subsequently owned by the city of Marion from 1918 to 1930, at which time it was transferred to state ownership for use as a Perry County public school. Thus, it is also known as the Old Perry County High School. The image shows the original three story building which was remodeled in 1930 with the removal of the uppermost floor.
