Inverness Justice Centre, Courthouse in Inverness, Scotland
The Inverness Justice Centre is a courthouse in Scotland containing six courtrooms for legal proceedings. The structure consists of concrete and glass with a north-facing colonnade of square columns located on Longman Road.
The building opened in 2020 and marked a move from the previous location at Inverness Castle. This relocation modernized the court functions in the city after years at the historic site.
The building brings together several organizations including Citizens Advice Bureau, Crown Office, Police Scotland, and Scottish Women's Aid in one location. This concentration of services makes it a central point for legal and social support in the region.
The building is open Monday through Friday with most services available during morning and early afternoon hours. Visitors should expect that this is an active workplace where security procedures are in place.
The building received the Scottish Design Award for Public Building of the Year in 2021 and was recognized for its modern architecture. This recognition shows that the structure contributes aesthetically to the city beyond its judicial function.
