The Evans County Courthouse is a historic government building and clock tower located in the city of Claxton, Georgia, United States, the seat of Evans County.
On September 18, 1980, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
[1] Evans County was created in 1914, first by a proposed constitutional amendment in the Georgia General Assembly on August 11 and then officially ratified by a vote of the citizens of Georgia on November 23.
The first building used as such was the White Building, a three-story edifice built by Mr. R. King White and later bought by Mrs. Ben Daniel.
The interior to the courthouse was remodeled in 1979 and 1980 and, in 2003, the bell tower clock was restored.
