The Salt Lake City Council Hall (also known as the Old Salt Lake City Hall) is a historic building located on Capitol Hill in Salt Lake City, Utah. Built from 1864 to 1866, it was used as the city hall for Salt Lake City from 1866 to 1894. Originally located in the downtown area, it was relocated to its current location in 1961, to make way for construction of the Wallace F. Bennett Federal Building.
Located across the street from the Utah State Capitol, the structure houses office space for the Utah Office of Tourism and the Utah Film Commission, along with a gift shop on its main level. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1975, as an emblem of (and site of events relating to) the conflicts between the governments of the Utah Territory and the United States in the 19th century.
