Lake County Courthouse
Lake County Courthouse, County courthouse in Crown Point, United States.
The Lake County Courthouse features a combination of Romanesque and Georgian architectural styles with a prominent clock tower and brick facade.
Construction of the central portion began in 1878 under architect John C. Cochrane, replacing an earlier frame building that served the county since 1849.
The building now functions as a museum operated by the Lake County Historical Society, preserving local heritage through exhibitions and educational programs.
The courthouse provides multiple legal services including superior court proceedings, civil divisions, criminal cases, and self-service legal assistance for residents.
Local materials were used in construction, with bricks sourced from the Henry Wise brickyard contributing to the structure's regional character.
