Hopkins County Courthouse, County courthouse in Sulphur Springs, United States.
Hopkins County Courthouse is a county courthouse in Sulphur Springs featuring Romanesque Revival architecture. The building combines granite and sandstone with a central tower, arched windows, and detailed stone carvings that define its exterior appearance.
The courthouse was built in 1894 after a fire destroyed the previous building. Architect James Riely Gordon designed this structure as part of the region's rebuilding efforts.
The courthouse serves as a symbol of Texas judicial architecture and remains central to the community's identity as a place of justice. Its designation as a Texas Historic Landmark reflects its importance to the region's heritage.
The building operates as an active courthouse with regular office hours for the public. Visitors should expect standard security procedures inside, and it is wise to verify access beforehand.
The tower was intentionally built without a clock, as town leaders considered it unnecessary. Inside, a double-helix cast iron staircase represents a noteworthy engineering detail from its time of construction.
