LaPorte County Courthouse, County courthouse in La Porte, United States.

The LaPorte County Courthouse stands tall with its red sandstone walls, central tower, and intricate stone carvings adorning its exterior facade.

Built between 1892 and 1894, this Richardsonian Romanesque structure replaced two previous courthouses that occupied the same location since 1833.

The courthouse features a 272-piece glass skylight in its tower and multiple gargoyles that demonstrate the architectural craftsmanship of the late 19th century.

Located at the intersection of Lincolnway and Michigan Avenue, the courthouse maintains its role as the center of county government operations.

The building incorporates the cornerstone from its 1848 predecessor and displays a notable stained glass window depicting the Goddess of Justice.
