Sandusky County Courthouse

The Sandusky County Courthouse is a local government building in Fremont, Ohio, United States.

[1] Built primarily of stone and brick, the courthouse possesses a Greek Revival facade composed of Doric columns.

As the county government's needs increased, local leaders applied in the 1930s for federal aid to expand their facility.

This project resulted in the replacement of the original columns and the relocation of the cupola to one of the new wings, as well as the construction of new additions.

[1] Despite the gap of nearly a century between the construction of the original and additional portions of the buildings, the newer portions complement the original section,[2] and the courthouse remains a significant component of the city's historic downtown, which also includes the site of a nearby fort that was constructed along the Sandusky River for the War of 1812.
