Ligonier Armory was a historic National Guard armory located at Ligonier, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1937-1938 as a Public Works Administration sponsored project, and was a "T"-shaped brick building executed in the Art Deco style. The two-story front section housed the drill hall, with a one-story administrative section in the rear. Additions were completed in 1962 and 1972.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1] The armory was demolished in the late 2000s, and the site redeveloped with residences.
