Uniontown Academy is a historic school located at Uniontown, Carroll County, Maryland, United States. It is a one-story building of brick with a stone foundation constructed in 1851 and is said to be a replica of the earlier, 1810 structure. It is three bays wide and three bays long, with a gable roof. The front facade features a "false" front effect with its corbeled or stepped setbacks derived from a traditional Dutch style often seen in the false store fronts of western towns.[2] The property retains many of its outbuildings and is operated as an inn and restaurant.

The Uniontown Academy was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[1]

After its establishment in 1810, Uniontown Academy was an English-speaking school in a predominantly German community.[3]

The building was donated by Maud Haines, a local resident, to be a community building and museum. Because of this donation, Historic Uniontown, Inc. was created, which received a grant from the Maryland Historical Trust to restore the building.[4]
