On January 30, 1978, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[2] It is the largest building of its kind anywhere in the world. The building was constructed by a local bridge builder and designed with a unique system of structural support. Because of this, there are no interior pillars to block the view of the stage. The large stage features three female Grecian statues representing Art, Music and Drama. These statues were works from renowned Illinois artist and Shelbyville native Robert Root. In 2009 Landmarks Illinois declared it one of the 10 most endangered historic places in Illinois. The building is in need of extensive repairs which are estimated to cost $1,750,000. The city of Shelbyville which owns the auditorium has threatened to tear it down if repairs cannot be made within 2 years. The Chautauqua Auditorium Preservation Committee is working on funding for a four-phase renovation project.[3] References1. ^{{NRISref|2009a}} 2. ^{{NRISref|2009a}} 3. ^{{Cite web |url=http://www.landmarks.org/ten_most.htm# |title=Illinois Landmarks 10 Most Endangered- Chautauqua Auditorium |access-date=2009-06-04 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090502010419/http://www.landmarks.org/ten_most.htm# |archive-date=2009-05-02 |dead-url=yes |df= }} External links{{commonscat-inline}}{{National Register of Historic Places}}{{Illinois-NRHP-stub}} 6 : Theatres on the National Register of Historic Places in Illinois|Chautauqua|Buildings and structures in Shelby County, Illinois|Theatres completed in 1903|National Register of Historic Places in Shelby County, Illinois|Event venues on the National Register of Historic Places in Illinois |
