University of Wisconsin Armory and Gymnasium was added to the National Register of Historic Places on Nov 4, 1993, and named a National Historic Landmark the same day. It is significant for its politics at the national level. Its architecture is described as Romanesque Revival.

The University of Wisconsin Armory and Gymnasium, also called the Red Gym, is a building on the campus of University of Wisconsin–Madison. It was originally used as a combination gymnasium and armory beginning in 1894. Designed in the Romanesque Revival style, it resembles a red brick castle. It is situated on the shores of Lake Mendota, overlooking Library Mall and adjacent to Memorial Union.
