1938 Lincoln County Courthouse

The 1938 Lincoln County Courthouse is an Art Moderne style building in Pioche, Nevada.

In 1937, Lincoln County began receiving proceeds of a major boom in lead and zinc mining that ran through the 1950s and provided a major portion of the county's tax revenues.

As the old county courthouse deteriorated, sentiment to replace it grew, resulting in a 1937 bond issue.

At this time the county received a grant of $26,800 from the Public Works Administration toward 45% of the cost of a new courthouse.

The bidder, L.F. Dow of Los Angeles and Las Vegas, completed the courthouse in 1939.
