Roberts County Courthouse, Sisseton, SD - U.S. National Register of Historic Places on Waymarking.com

After Roberts County was formed in 1883 Travare and then Wilmot served as county seats. After a typical round of disputes and elections Sisseton became the county seat in 1898. A bond issue for a new courthouse was approved and construction of the brick and stone building, located on one of the highest points in the town, began in 1902.

Repairs and renovations over the years have maintained the original appearance of the domed building. The rotunda and interior wall decorations were restored to the original colors in 1988.
