Postville Memorial Hall recalls 63 years of community service
The Postville hall built in 1913 as Turner hall has become Memorial hall after a 1940 name change. It was funded by the Turner gymnastics society and later hosted Nobel laureate John R. Mott in 1946. Now used by city offices and many groups, it charges rentals only to individuals while clubs go free.
