The ceremonial Whitworth Hall was built between 1898 and 1902 to commemorate the Manchester engineer Joseph Whitworth (1803–1887). The height and rhythm of the hall echo the similar gothic style of the Museum building, to which it is connected by the archway. Features of note include the towers and the large perpendicular-style window at the south end, the full scale organ, and the wonderful hammer-beam timber roof. The great window includes coats of arms of the 'textile towns', celebrating the University as a 'centre of intelligence' for an industrial region which then dominated the world trade in cotton.
