Cabarrus County Courthouse

The historic Cabarrus County Courthouse in Concord, North Carolina was completed in 1876,[2] replacing one that was destroyed by fire just the previous year.

The records show that the first court held for the county of Cabarrus was at the house of Robert Russell located on the Salisbury Road on the third Monday of January, 1793.

In 1795 commissioners were named to build the first courthouse; it was very small, only thirty feet square, poorly lit and ventilated and inadequately heated.

It was built at the center of the square which was the intersection of Union and Corban Streets; this structure was used for thirty years until a new courthouse was constructed in 1826.
