Northumberland County Courthouse
Northumberland County Courthouse, Renaissance Revival courthouse in Sunbury, Pennsylvania.
The Northumberland County Courthouse stands as a three-story brick building with a prominent clock tower topped by a copper dome at Market Street.
Built in 1865 by architect Samuel Sloan, the courthouse received recognition through its addition to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
The courthouse contributed to Pennsylvania's legal heritage as the location of notable trials, including the 1878 Peter McManus case during the Molly Maguire period.
The courthouse functions as the central location for legal proceedings, marriage licenses, and domestic relations services, with an online payment system for court fees.
Simon Cameron donated the bell that resides in the tower, while brownstone quoins decorate the corners of this architectural structure.
