Davidge Hall, constructed in 1812, is named for Dr. John B. Davidge, the first dean of the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Noted for its unique classical appearance, it is the oldest building in the country used continuously for medical education. The Medical School, established in 1807 by the Maryland General Assembly, was the fifth to be founded in the United States. Following mergers with Baltimore Medical College in 1913 and the College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1915, the school became part of the State University System in 1920.
