The Union League of Philadelphia
The Union League was established in 1862 to promote loyalty to the Union and the
policies of Abraham Lincoln. The classic French Renaissance-styled League House
dates back to 1865 and is listed in the National Historic Register.
The traditional interior decor is accented in rich leather, patinated wood and
polished marble. Adorning the walls and hallways is the League's distinguished
art collection.
Historically, only gentlemen were permitted to join the organization, but now
over 3,000 men and women between the ages of 21 and 98 make up the membership of
the Union League.
The Union League building is now mainly used as a four diamond hotel called The
Inn at the League..
