Great care has been taken to restore the character and charm of the structure both inside and out. A Civil War Trail marker stands outside the courthouse describing historic events occurring in this area during Stoneman's Raid in 1865. When you visit, be sure to experience this important part of Polk County's rich history and heritage.
