The Odd Fellows' Hall is a historic Odd Fellows' hall at 1-5 State Street on the Buckland side of Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts. It is a focal point of the business district on the Buckland side of the village. The Odd Fellows built the building in 1877 to replace one that had been destroyed by fire at a different location. The 1877 building was also destroyed by fire in 1895, but the Odd Fellows rebuilt it. They used the building until 1962, after which it has served retail and commercial purposes. The building is notable in the village for its third floor Palladian windows and its elaborate cornice.[1]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[2] In 1988 it was included in the Shelburne Falls Historic District.[1]
