Newton County Courthouse
Newton County Courthouse, Historic courthouse in Covington, United States
The Second Empire style Newton County Courthouse features a prominent clock tower and stands at the center of Courthouse Square in Covington, Georgia.
The Newton County Courthouse, constructed in 1884 by Bruce & Morgan architects, replaced an earlier structure that burned down on December 31, 1883.
The courthouse maintains its role as a central government facility, hosting county commission meetings and housing administrative offices on its three floors.
Located at 1124 Clark Street, the courthouse provides offices for the County Manager, Board of Commission Chairman, and Public Information Officer.
The Seth Thomas tower clock, installed in 1885, continues to function following restoration efforts that preserved this mechanical timepiece.
