The Old Courthouse on the Square
The historic Union County Courthouse was built in 1899. The building was designed by J.W. Golucke, a noted courthouse architect of the day. The courthouse suffered years of neglect and was in disrepair from the 1920's. It was condemned in the 1970's but was saved from demolition by the Union County Historical Society. Since then it has been restored and maintained by the Union County Historical Society along with several other preservation projects and is now on the National Register of Historic Places.
