Carlow Courthouse, Neoclassical courthouse in Carlow, Ireland

The courthouse features a grand octastyle portico with Ionic columns and stands elevated on a high plinth overlooking Dublin Road.

William Vitruvius Morrison designed this judicial building in 1830, drawing inspiration from the Temple of Ilissus in Athens for its architectural style.

The courthouse maintains its original function as a center for legal proceedings while representing the institutional architecture of nineteenth-century Ireland.

The Carlow Court Office operates Monday through Friday, with specific morning hours and afternoon appointments for various legal and administrative services.

A Russian artillery piece from the Crimean War, placed on the courthouse steps in 1858, remains at this location to this day.
