The Greeley County Courthouse in Greeley, Nebraska was built in 1913–14. It was designed by architects Berlinghof & Davis in Classical Revival style. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

It is a three-story building on a basement, with foundation and trim of gold-hued limestone, and walls of greyish-tan brick. It has been described as "a good example of the work of Nebraska architect George A. Berlinghof (here as Berlinghof & Davis), representing the evolution of his designs. The courthouse is a less elaborate version of the Howard County Courthouse built in 1912-15 in the next county south of Greeley."

A former pumphouse is a second contributing building on the property.[1]
