Angell Hall is an academic building at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, United States. It was previously connected to the University Hall building, which was replaced by Mason Hall and Haven Hall. Angell Hall is named in honor of James Burrill Angell, who was the University's president from 1871 to 1909. Mason Hall is named after Stevens T. Mason, the first governor of Michigan, while Haven Hall was named for the University's second president, Erastus O. Haven. Tisch Hall, named for donors Preston and Joan Tisch, is also connected to Angell Hall.

The Angell Hall Observatory is located on the fifth floor roof of Angell Hall. The main telescope is a 0.4-m (16-inch) Ritchey-Chretien reflector, which has a spectrograph and camera. The observatory also has a small radio telescope and 20-cm (8-inch) Schmidt-Cassegrains.
