Columbus County Courthouse, Classical Revival courthouse in Whiteville, North Carolina, US

Columbus County Courthouse is a two-story Classical Revival building of brick and concrete, designed by Joseph F. Leitner's firm and built in 1914–1915. Its rectangular mass is fronted by a pedimented, tetrastyle Doric portico, four columns carrying the gable over the entrance.

Whiteville's courthouse was built in 1914–1915 to designs by the firm of Joseph F. Leitner, replacing an earlier county courthouse on the same site. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, the year the county's two-story brick and concrete building was recognised for its Classical Revival architecture.

The courthouse keeps the county's public records and courts under one roof, so residents come here for deeds, filings and hearings. The building's 1914–1915 Classical Revival design by Joseph F. Leitner's firm, with its four-column Doric portico, frames that everyday civic use; the property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

The courthouse is located at the center of Whiteville where Madison and Jefferson Streets intersect. As an active government building, visitors should expect standard security procedures when entering.

The courthouse occupies a key intersection in Whiteville's downtown and has shaped the town's character for over a century. Its central location makes it a natural gathering point where residents pause while going about their daily activities.
