Bartholomew County Courthouse
Bartholomew County Courthouse, County courthouse in Columbus, US.
The Bartholomew County Courthouse features red brick walls with limestone trim, a mansard roof, corner pavilions, and a prominent six-level clock tower rising 154 feet.
Architect Isaac Hodgson designed this Second Empire-style courthouse, which was constructed between 1871 and 1874 at a cost of 250,000 dollars by McCormack and Sweeny.
The courthouse stands as a central architectural element in Columbus Historic District, representing the governmental and administrative functions of Bartholomew County since its dedication.
Located at the intersection of 3rd and Washington Streets, the courthouse provides essential county services, including court proceedings, financial records, and administrative meetings.
The building's clock mechanism underwent modernization in 1940 after a 900-pound weight fell, replacing the original weighted system with an electric motor.
