Temperance Hall Hotel Temperance Hall is a small community in Southern DeKalb County. The community hotel from the mid 1800s predates the name of the town. Several local pro-temperance activists held meetings in the building's large upper chamber, thus the room became Temperance Hall. Eventually, the locals decide to adopt this as the town's name. Today, it is a private residence.
