Henry County Courthouse

The Henry County Courthouse is a county courthouse in Napoleon, Ohio, standing at the corner of North Perry and East Washington Streets. The structure displays Greek Revival and Gothic Revival design elements with ornamental cornices, pediments, and detailed stonework throughout its exterior.

The building was completed in 1882 after fires destroyed earlier courthouse structures in 1847 and 1879. Architect David Gibbs designed the current structure as a lasting replacement for the lost buildings.

The building serves as a meeting place where residents gather for community events and local activities. Its surrounding square reflects how people in Napoleon use public spaces to connect and celebrate together.

The building is located in downtown Napoleon and is easily accessible on foot. Standard business hours apply for accessing administrative functions and viewing the interior spaces.

The building was constructed with significant investment in craftsmanship, as seen in its finely detailed ornamental work. These elaborate features have been preserved and remain visible throughout the structure today.
