Tombstone Courthouse, Historic site in Tombstone, United States.

The Tombstone Courthouse is a two-story red brick building from 1882, laid out in the shape of a cross and built in the Territorial Victorian style. Its exterior angles are quoined with white stone, and a one-story cupola with a mansard roof sits on top. Inside, the former Cochise County offices, courtrooms, and jail now hold a museum of artifacts from Tombstone's history.

The building was constructed in 1882 during the height of silver mining in the region and served as the judicial center for Cochise County. It played a key role in enforcing law and order in a rough and dangerous frontier area.

The courthouse reveals how frontier communities operated and valued justice, with furnished rooms and objects that show how people worked and lived in a mining town. The displayed items and spaces tell stories about crafts, daily routines, and how local society maintained order and resolved disputes.

The building is open to visitors regularly, with hours varying depending on the season and weather. It is recommended to check specific times before visiting, as access varies throughout the year.

The replica gallows in the courtyard marks the spot where seven men were hanged for various crimes. The courthouse also has a one-story cupola with a mansard roof and gingerbread cresting, forming a widow's walk. An iron spiral stair ascends the southeast corner to the courtroom.
