Bendigo Law Courts, Victorian Second Empire courthouse in Bendigo, Australia.
The Bendigo Law Courts features rendered brick walls, Harcourt Bluestone foundations, mansard roofs, and dormer windows arranged in Italianate palazzo style.
The Victorian Public Works Department commissioned architect George W. Watson to design this courthouse, which contractors McCulloch and McAlpine constructed between 1892 and 1896.
The building contains an extensive collection of original 19th and early 20th-century furniture and fittings, representing the legal heritage of Victoria.
The facility houses Magistrates, County, and Supreme Courts with separate entrances for judges, prisoners, and public through grand vestibules leading to a central stone staircase.
Among ten justice buildings constructed in Victoria between 1875 and 1896, this courthouse stands as the only one not combined with other government facilities.
