The University of Idaho Gymnasium and Armory, now called Art and Architecture South, stands on the university campus in Moscow, Idaho. John E. Tourtellotte of Boise designed it in 1903, and the article describes the style as Romanesque Revival, or Romanesque-eclectic. The site covers 2.5 acres (1.0 hectares).

It was built as a gym and armory. In November 1928 the new Memorial Gymnasium opened, and this building became the women's gym. When the Physical Education Building opened in 1970, the older building was remodeled and renamed Art and Architecture South.

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 3, 1983, under reference number 83000287. Its coordinates are about 46.726 degrees north and 117.012 degrees west. The article lists no cost, size or materials for the building.
