Hood County Courthouse Historic District, Historic courthouse district in Granbury, United States.

The Hood County Courthouse Historic District spans 12 acres and features Victorian buildings constructed with native Brazos limestone around a central square.

The district earned its National Register of Historic Places designation in 1974, marking it as the first courthouse square in Texas to receive this recognition.

The courthouse district includes the 1886 Granbury Opera House, First National Bank Building, and multiple commercial structures that display 19th-century architectural elements.

The courthouse maintains regular operating hours for government services, with guided tours available to explore the restored interior and original clock tower mechanisms.

The district courtroom contains decorative paintings that match the staircase handrail pattern, alongside five original vault doors with hand-painted designs.
