The Perryville American Legion Building is a historic fraternal meeting hall at Plum and Main Streets in Perryville, Arkansas. It is a single story masonry building with Rustic and Tudor styling. It has a steeply pitched gable roof, with a projecting gabled entry vestibule facing the street. The gable ends are decorated with half-timbering, and the roof eaves show exposed rafter ends in the Craftsman style.
