The dominant building in the Russellville Downtown Historic District is the Pope County Courthouse (PP00213) at 100 West Main Street. This four story brick building was constructed in 1931. Designed by H. Ray Burks, architect of many of Arkansas's courthouses, the building features elaborate Art Deco detailing typical of public buildings of the era.
