Prior to the construction of this courthouse, another courthouse was built for the county in 1880.[1] It burned down in 1883, and this courthouse was built by Gus Senieur a few months later.[1] By 2012, it was the second oldest courthouse in the state of Montana.[2]
The courthouse was designed by Kees & Fish in the Queen Anne architectural style.[1] [3] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since September 29, 1980.[3]
