Originally called the Salisbury Building, the Hamburg Grange building at 22 Main Street was home to the William L. Froehley furniture and undertaking business on the first two floors and the Hamburg Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry on the third floor.
The National Grange was organized in 1867 to assist farmers whose livelihoods were devastated by the Civil War.
Hamburg Grange No. 1293 was organized in 1913. They met in this building until 1974.
