Another outstanding example of Victorian Richardsonian Romanesque architecture for a Midwest Courthouse. This building is on the National Register and is very interesting with the contrasting clock tower to the rest of the building.

This three-and-one-half story red sandstone Richardsonian Romanesque Courthouse was constructed in 1897. The architect was G.S. Mansfield. Good example of courthouse in Richardsonian Romanesque style. Tower sheathed with copper a little out of keeping with heavy, rock-faced sandstone walls. Topical stylistic features include parapet gable ends, corner towers, and sandstone exterior.
