The Western Bohemian Fraternal Union Hall is a historic clubhouse in Meadowlands Township, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 1925 as a meeting hall for a lodge of the Western Bohemian Fraternal Union (Zapadni Ceska Bratrska Jednota), a society of Czech Americans. The hall also served as a host for Sokol gymnastics events.[2] The hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986 for its local significance in the themes of European ethnic heritage and social history.[3] It was nominated for being a long-serving rural venue for the preservation of Czech American culture and heritage.[2]
