}}Hibbing High School is a public grade 7–12 high school in Hibbing, Minnesota, United States. It was built from 1920 to 1922 as the entire city relocated {{convert|2|mi|km|spell=in|sigfig=1}} south to make way for the expanding Hull–Rust–Mahoning Mine. The lavish Tudor Revival building was constructed at a cost of about $3.9 million ({{Inflation|US|3900000|1920|fmt=eq}}), becoming known as the "castle in the woods" and—thanks to its polished brass fixtures—the "school with the golden doorknobs".[2] The project was bankrolled by the mining industry, which wanted to make the move more palatable for those being displaced. It also satisfied immigrants' desire for their children's education.[3]

Hibbing High School is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1] Visitors may tour the building on their own during the school year or on guided tours during the summer.[4]

Amenities

The school features a lavishly decorated 1800-seat auditorium patterned after the Capitol Theatre in New York City. The chandeliers were built at a cost of $15,000 each, with cut glass from Belgium. They are now each insured for $250,000. The auditorium also contains a 1900-pipe organ from the Barton Organ Company, which can play any orchestra instrument except for the violin.[5]

History

Hibbing High School received the Bellamy Award in 1968, an honor given to one school nationwide annually to for outstanding academic achievements[2]

The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 for its state-level significance in the themes of architecture, education, industry, and politics/government.[6] It was nominated for its sumptuous Jacobethan architecture and association with the mutual desire by corporations and residents for improved public education as the mining industry mechanized.[7]

On November 26, 1996 construction on a new addition to the building caused a fire. Although the fire was extinguished before it reached the original building, a significant amount of smoke damage had occurred. School had to be suspended for over a month while cleaning took place.{{citation needed|date=February 2019}}
