The Sons of Italy Hall is the former clubhouse of an Italian-American fraternal organization in Hibbing, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 1930 and stayed active until 1968.[2] The hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 for its local significance in the theme of social history.[3] It was nominated for reflecting the diversity of the Iron Range immigrant population and the unique way Hibbing's Italian community organized around clubs rather than churches.[2]
