October of last year my wife and I took a trip up into West Oklahoma and did some hiking in the Wichita Mountains. As we were passing through a small community we came across an old native stone Gymnasium in Comanche, Oklahoma. I just had to stop and get a closer look.
Old Native Stone Gymnasium in Comanche, Oklahoma
What we found were the burned out remains of an old gym with a round metal roof. The walls were built from native stone.
On the curb there’s a stamped WPA Shield with the year 1939 on it. This is about the time the Works Progress Administration was active and building new school and other public buildings.
Not much information on this location. From what I can tell, this school gymnasium was built in 1939 by the WPA. The school is long gone and the burned out shell of the gym is all that’s left. Old houses are up next to the building and were probably built sometime after the other building was removed.
At some point, I will look more into this location for more details.

Thats neat thanks
Love this place. It is located across the street from my best fried from Jr. high and high school. We used to run around and explore inside, before the roof disintegrated. Thanks for posting…it brought back many good memories.
