Boone County Courthouse rotunda, Lebanon, Indiana |
I try to make a point of visiting county courthouses whenever I land in a county seat I had not previously been in. Only in the last few years did I make a point of photographing them. There's a bit of chance involved since you never know what the weather will be, or if the doors will be open. Here are a few pictures from courthouses I've been in in the last year. Two are of the Neoclassical trend in architecture at the turn of the century, while the third is of the Romanesque Revival style which became synonymous with courthouse architecture at the end of the 19th century.

Cool. The Carroll County courthouse looks great. I was in Delphi a couple weeks ago; wish I had known the courthouse was so cool. I would have gone in to look.
