Johnson County Courthouse is a historic courthouse located at Warrensburg, Johnson County, Missouri. It was built between 1896 and 1898, and is a 2 1/2-story, Romanesque Revival style sandstone building. It has a cross-gabled building with a square tower rising from a central base. The building features the central tower's octagonal, ogee-shaped dome, plus four corner towers or pavilions with domes and finials. It replaced the Johnson County Courthouse on Old Public Square.[1]
It was designed by George E McDonald, who designed at least three other courthouses listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This one was listed in 1994.
