Eureka County Courthouse

"There's no missing this one. The Eureka Courthouse is so stately, it should mandate its magnetic field. By far ... the largest building in central Nevada. Now where's the tour?" -- October 2009

Exact Description:
Built in 1879-80, of locally fired brick and of sandstone quarried nearby, the Eureka County Courthouse remains a fine example of boom town Victorian opulence. This relic, scene of many famous trials, lives on in reflected glory of the days when Eureka was the first important lead-silver district in the United States.
