Workers’ Hall (, ) in Vukovar, Croatia is a representative palace in the centre of the town which was completed in 1897. The building was originally built as a Hotel Grand designed by Serbian architect Vladimir Nikolić and in 1919 it was purchased by Workers Association and renamed to its contemporary name. In 1920 the building hosted the 2nd Congress of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia. The building was heavily devastated during the Battle of Vukovar in 1991. The first meeting of the presidency of the newly established Serb National Council took place at the Workers' Hall on 12 and 13 November 1997 at the time of finalization of the UNTAES mission in the Eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Syrmia.
