The Krambach Memorial Hall is a large timber building, typical of rural community halls. It has a high facade at the front, with an open awning, central doorway and windows. Above the awning is a painted mural of a mail coach and bullock team.
The hall is also known as the Krambach School of Arts, the Old School of Arts Hall and the Community Hall. Inside is the Krambach First and Second World Wars Honour Roll.
The hall is managed by the School of Arts Hall Committee. Access inside is restricted to its opening hours.
