Gilmanton Academy is a historic school building on Province Road in Gilmanton, New Hampshire. The wood frame building was erected in 1894, and was the third main building for the Academy, which was founded in 1794 as a private school. It is one of the last private academy buildings to be built in the state, which had ten years earlier required towns to fund secondary education, leading to a decline in enrollments at such private schools. The building was designed by Bodwell & Sargent of Concord.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
