Sioux County Courthouse
Sioux County Courthouse, Richardsonian Romanesque courthouse in Orange City, Iowa.
The six-story central tower features a deep rusticated arch entrance and combines dark red sandstone with light buff sandstone trim throughout its exterior.
The courthouse replaced an initial log structure from Calliope after Orange City became the county seat through an 1872 referendum decision.
The building incorporates a statue of Justice on its tower roof, following reconstruction work necessitated by lightning damage in 1907.
The courthouse maintains regular business hours for county administrative services, legal proceedings, and public document access throughout the working week.
The E. Howard & Co. clock mechanism, originally weight-driven, received an electric motor upgrade while preserving its historical components.
