Ware Town Hall is a historic town hall at Main and West Streets in Ware, Massachusetts. The Romanesque Revival structure was built in 1885 to a design by the architectural firm of Hartwell and Richardson. It was built on the site of a previous town hall, built 1847, that was destroyed by fire in 1867. The brick building is a roughly square shape, with a tall hip roof and tower on one flank. The main floor of the building houses an auditorium and theater facilities, and the town offices are located in the basement.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
