Watson School
15000 Bodega Highway
Bodega
Built 1856

Watson School was built in 1856 and was used as a schoolhouse for over a century.

The Greek Revival building is typical of early California one-room schoolhouses: bell tower, double doors, balloon framing finished with shiplap redwood siding. The interior floor slopes down to a teacher's platform in front of the original slate blackboard.

Watson School is also Sonoma County Landmark 23.
