Warren County Courthouse (Illinois)

The Warren County Courthouse, located in Monmouth, Illinois, serves as the governmental center for the county and is part of the 9th circuit of the Illinois judicial district 4. Constructed between 1894 and 1895, this Romanesque Revival style building is the fourth courthouse in the area, following earlier structures built in the 1830s. The courthouse, made of rusticated sandstone, reflects the historical competition for the county seat between Monmouth and the nearby town of Oquawka. With a construction cost of $130,000, it stands as a significant architectural and historical landmark in the region.
