岁月变迁

俄文楼曾经是学生上课的教室,内有教室、图书馆和小礼堂。这里现在是留学生上课的地方,楼前小广场是北大的英语角。

 

文物缘起

曾经是女子学院教学楼,由罗素?塞奇基金会(Russel Sage Foundation)为纪念塞吉(Mrs. Sage)夫人而捐赠捐资兴建。二楼有礼拜堂,专供女子圣事服侍之用。

 

Distinguishing feature

Located at the north of the lawn in the Garden of Serenity, the south of the Weiming Lake, the structure is great and imposing. It is a representative work of Murphy, with gray tiles, white wall, and red sash. The whole building shows a classical beauty.

 

History

The Sage Hall was used to be a teaching building, with classrooms, library and a chapel inside. Now it is the teaching building for foreign students only. The little square front of the building is the English corner of Peking University.

 

The Sage Hall was used to be the teaching building of women's college, erected by the donation from Russel Sage Foundation, in memory of Mrs. Sage.
