Cass County Courthouse, Neoclassical courthouse in Linden, Texas.
The three-story Cass County Courthouse features classical revival architecture with twelve-foot high ceilings and a hipped roof painted in lead color.
Built in 1859 and operational since 1861, this courthouse stands as the only existing Antebellum courthouse within Texas and remains the longest continuously operating courthouse in the state.
Local artisan J. Thomas Veal produced nearly half a million bricks from his plant south of Linden for the construction of this governmental building.
The courthouse maintains vital records, provides administrative services, and houses the County Clerk's office where residents can obtain birth certificates and legal documents.
Following a 1933 fire that destroyed the third floor and roof, the building underwent restoration while preserving original elements like window openings and fireplaces.
