The Graham County Courthouse is located at 12 North Main Street in Robbinsville, the county seat of Graham County, North Carolina. The T-shaped building occupies a prominent location in the center of Robbinsville.[1] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
The first Graham County Courthouse was constructed in Robbinsville in 1874, but its floor collapsed two decades later while the building was packed during a murder trial. A replacement, built in 1895, was the last wooden courthouse built in North Carolina. The third and current building was completed in 1942.[2] [3]
The current courthouse is a Classical Revival structure designed by Barber and McMurry of Knoxville, Tennessee. It is fashioned from stone reportedly gathered in the Mill Creek area about 2miles southeast of Robbinsville. The building is one of three North Carolina courthouses built with funds from the Depression-era Works Progress Administration.
