The Jefferson County Courthouse is located at 301 Market Street in Steubenville, Ohio.

The courthouse was originally designed and built with four floors, high arched windows with hood-moulds and keystones, sectional Corinthian columns, and a flight of stairs to each entrance.

The sandstone building is severely discolored due to the polluted air from the surrounding steel factories and heavy traffic.

In 1950 during a ferocious snowstorm, the top floor collapsed, destroying the ornate roof and tower.

In front of the courthouse is a statue of Stuebenville native Edwin McMasters Stanton, United States Secretary of War to President Abraham Lincoln.
