Old Main
Old Main — originally known simply as “Main Building” — was Baylor’s first building project in Waco after relocating in 1886 from Independence, Texas, where the university resided for its first four decades. Old Main’s interior and purpose has changed countless times over the years; initially it contained classrooms, a library, laboratories, a studio and a chapel, while today, it’s home to Baylor’s department of modern languages and cultures.
