Sarasota County Courthouse
Sarasota County Courthouse, Historic county courthouse in downtown Sarasota, Florida.
The Sarasota County Courthouse features Spanish Mediterranean Revival architecture with stucco exterior walls, red clay tile roofing, arched windows, and ornamental details designed by architect Dwight James Baum.
Built between 1926 and 1927 by Stevenson and Cameron Inc. on land donated by Charles and Edith Ringling, the courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
The courthouse serves as a symbol of Sarasota's civic development and judicial independence, representing the architectural trends and community values of early 20th-century Florida governance.
Currently functioning as the Office of the Sarasota County Clerk of Circuit Court and Comptroller, the building provides services including court records maintenance, marriage licenses, and property deed recordings.
