Deschutes County was created from the western portion of Crook County on December 13, 1916. The county seat is located in the city of Bend. Early county offices were first located in various rental locations. In 1935 the county court decided to purchase an old brick Central School to serve as the courthouse. In 1937 the courthouse and most of the early county records were destroyed by fire. Construction of the current courthouse began in February 1940. The building was designed by Truman Phillips of Tourtellote & Phillips Architects and was modeled after the Linn County Courthouse in Albany.
Today the building houses the Jury Assembly Room, District Attorney Offices, Court Fillings and Victim’s Assistance.
