Established in 1898, this Classical Revival courthouse replaced an earlier Greek Revival structure that was frequently used by Abraham Lincoln during his legal career. The courthouse is situated at 117 East Court St. and is complemented by a modern Public Safety Facility added in the early 2000s. Visitors can explore the rich history of the area, including the preserved Metamora Courthouse State Historic Site, which reflects the county's legal heritage.
