Warren County Courthouse

Warren County Courthouse is a public administration building in Front Royal with a concrete block structure faced in stone and topped by a three-stage tower with a domed belfry. The complex includes multiple buildings, with an earlier brick office building for records nearby.

The courthouse was built between 1935 and 1936 following Colonial Revival design principles. The site also houses a brick records office from 1836 and memorials to soldiers and war veterans.

The courthouse sits at the heart of Front Royal's downtown and shapes how the town looks and feels. You can see here how a small American community built its public spaces with traditional forms and materials.

The courthouse sits in downtown Front Royal on East Main Street and is easy to reach on foot. The site is open to visitors during regular business hours when administrative functions are operating.

Architect Alan J. Saville designed the building with special details like a gabled roof and recessed wings that give it a distinct look. These design choices make the courthouse a noteworthy example of local building style from the 1930s.
