背景 Background

大學堂位於薄扶林山頂,糅合都鐸、哥德及文藝復興復興風格。它約於一八六一年由蘇格蘭商人杜格拉斯·立卑·拉普克興建,作為其總部及住宅,名為「杜格拉斯堡」。法國外方傳道會於一八九四年購入,改名「拿撒勒」。傳道會一九五三年放棄該址,香港大學一九五四年購入作本科生宿舍,一九五六年起供男生住宿,稱大學堂。建築保留以都鐸式拱門分劃的柱廊遊廊;屋頂的城垛式女兒牆、角塔及小尖塔,是這座城堡式建築最鮮明的特色。一九九五年列為法定古蹟。

Standing on a hill in Pokfulam, University Hall blends Tudor, Gothic and Renaissance Revival styles. It was built around 1861 by the Scottish businessman Douglas Lapraik as his headquarters and residence, and named Douglas Castle. The French Society of Foreign Missions bought it in 1894 and renamed it Nazareth. The society gave it up in 1953 and the University of Hong Kong acquired it in 1954 as an undergraduate hostel; it has housed male students since 1956 as University Hall. Its colonnaded verandahs with Tudor arches divide the first and second floors, while embattled parapets, pinnacles and corner towers give the castle-like building its distinctive character. It was declared a monument in 1995.
