Why is it feminine?

Aula is feminine because it derives from Latin *aula* (hall, court), which was a feminine noun in Latin, and Spanish retained this grammatical gender through regular sound changes and inheritance of Latin gender assignments. The word likely has proto-Indo-European roots related to enclosure or courtyard spaces, though the specific feminine assignment was simply a feature of how Latin classified this particular noun.
