Tazewell County Courthouse
Tazewell County Courthouse, County courthouse in Pekin, United States.
The Tazewell County Courthouse features an arched entrance with Tuscan columns on the upper levels, decorative entablature, and a balustrade along the roof.
Lincoln-based architects Deal & Ginzel constructed this Beaux-Arts courthouse in 1914 to replace the previous structure from 1849 as county operations expanded.
The cornerstone contains a copper box crafted by Jaeckel & Sons, preserving local historical items that document the community's development through time.
