Nassau Hall at Princeton UniversityNassau Hall at Princeton University
This light brown sandstone structure named for England's King William III, of the House of Nassau, was designated a national landmark in 1960 for serving as a model for colonial college structures and as a barracks in the Revolutionary War. In the Battle of Princeton in 1777, British and American troops quartered there at different times and a cannonball that hit the south wall of the west wing left a scar that is visible today.
