Presidio County Courthouse

The craftsmanship is phenomenal! If you have an appreciation for historical architecture, this might be a place to see. There is a little bit of history here-- as you walk through the hallways you get the feeling what it it might have been like to be here 100+ years ago. The original chairs in the hallway make you wonder about who sat there-- attorneys, famous lawmen, victims, and of course, criminals! But first and foremost, the wood work and craftsmanship is great. The stairwells and other examples of carpentry is impressive! :-)

I came to visit the courthouse as I like old things and history. The architecture is amazing and the woodwork is in and of itself nice to look at. I walked and and went up three flights of stairs to an area they had open with pictures of the courthouse that were very old. There was another flight of stairs that led me up to the top which has an amazing 360 degree view. Well worth the time.

A gorgeous historic courthouse! It’s amazing that it’s still being used as intended. A true estimate to the craftsmanship of its builders.

I'm from Los Angeles, CA so visiting Marfa, TX was a huge culture shock to a city boy like myself! The courthouse (along with the rest of the town) is frozen in time, all wood interior, small, and the floors creek when you walk inside. There's huge trees just outside the courthouse that drop pecans! I cracked one open and ate it, yuuumm! Best part about the courthouse is they allow you to walk up to the very top to oversee all of Marfa! When you first walk into the courthouse take a left into the first door and theres a small room where people register their cars, in here theres license plates plastered on the wall and an old bank vault. The staff is awesome and friendly and let me take photos in there.

Beautiful courthouse by Alfred Giles in the Second Empire style (1896).

Took the stairs inside courthouse into the dome. Nice views of Marfa.

One of the coolest courthouses in Texas. Love the tower with Lady Justice on top. Great architecture.

Very unusual building when viewed from the 3 rd floor looking down .

Beautiful building

Classic courthouse in the center of Marfa. Open to the public during the day. You can climb all the way to the top for some excellent views of Marfa!

Very cool, well-kept historic building. Worthwhile stop if passing through Marfa

My brother got married here. The justice of the peace was kind and fun, and it was a beautiful courthouse.

If you can get to the dome the views are great.

Good place to get locked up at!

Ein mit viel Liebe und Engagement erhaltenes Courthouse. Wir waren überrascht, so ein schönes Gebäude in dieser Gegend zu finden.

Cute building
