Stutsman County Courthouse and Sheriff's Residence/Jail
Stutsman County Courthouse and Sheriff's Residence/Jail, Gothic Revival courthouse in Jamestown, United States.
The Stutsman County Courthouse is a government building from North Dakota's early years, notable for its extensive interior covered in pressed metal on walls and ceilings. Nearly all interior surfaces display this metalwork, creating a distinctive appearance throughout the structure.
The building was constructed in 1883 and served as North Dakota's oldest surviving courthouse for many years. It played an important role in early territorial government activities and decisions.
The metal-covered walls and ceilings showcase craftsmanship methods that were popular when this region was being settled. Walking through the rooms gives a sense of how people decorated important public buildings during that era.
The building is located in downtown Jamestown and welcomes visitors who want to explore its interior spaces. Since it remains in active use as a courthouse, it is helpful to plan your visit around regular working hours.
The building holds one of the largest collections of pressed metal surfaces found in the entire region. This type of interior finish was an expensive and labor-intensive process used only in the most important buildings.
