Clemson University Historic Tillman Hall...by Reid Callaway
Main Building Architectural Art

While all the hype was on (2019) about this teams record (29-0) and the up coming National Championship Game against LSU, I thought I'd give you some images to choose from for your "Man Cave" or to beautify your home or office setting from this great South Carolina school.

Buy this image for the Clemson fan in your life or someone you love!

Tillman Hall is the most famous building on the Clemson University campus. The 3 story brick building with a clock tower is located on a hill overlooking Bowman Field. Tillman Hall is currently the home of the College of Education.
Connected to Tillman Hall is the Tillman Auditorium, a 755-seat auditorium that formerly was a campus chapel named Memorial Chapel. Tillman Auditorium is used primarily for lectures and seminars, small concerts, pageants and dances.
Tillman Hall at Clemson University and Tillman Hall at Winthrop University are both named after former South Carolina governor Benjamin Tillman.

Tillman Hall was nationally registered as part of Clemson University Historic District I. It is one of the few remaining buildings from Clemson University's original campus.
Tillman Hall was designed by Bruce and Morgan, who also designed several other famous college buildings in the south to include Samford Hall at Auburn University and Tech Tower at Georgia Tech. The building was built in 1893 using the labor of convicts. A fire destroyed all but the exterior walls in 1894. Bruce and Morgan oversaw the subsequent renovation that was completed in 1895. Tillman Hall was originally called the Main Building or Agricultural Hall. The building featured the first library, many classrooms and laboratories, and a chapel.
The original clock in Tillman Hall was built by the Seth Thomas Clock Company and installed in 1906. The clock tower was modernized in 1985, and the old clock was placed into storage. The Western Carolina Chapter of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors (NAWCC) became aware of the existence of the old clock in 2005 and worked with members of Clemson's College of Engineering to restore it. The old Tillman tower clock is on display in the Fluor Daniel Building on campus.
