The Kendrick Fraternal Temple, at 614 E. Main in Kendrick, Idaho, was built in 1905. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013. [1]

It was built after a fire in 1904 destroyed much of Kendrick. [2]

It is an Early Commercial, two-part commercial block building, built by contractors Collins and Walker. The south-facing brick building is "one of the most imposing" on Kendrick's main street.

After the 1904 fire, a "Fraternal Temple Company, Limited" was formed and raised $8,000.00 by sale of $10 shares to support construction of a building which would serve all of the fraternal orders existing in Kendrick. These included:

Membership probably included persons from an area larger than Kendrick, including from the nearby town of Juliaetta, Idaho. [3]

It also served the Musical Club, the Women's Club, the Baseball Club, and the Commercial Club, and was available for use by other local groups. [3]

In 1940, the Kendrick Grange #413, a chapter of the Order of the Patrons of Husbandry, was established and also used the building. [3]

In 2013, the building was under renovation by the Grange group; it has also been known as Kendrick Grange Hall. [3]
