It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1] It was designed by Lincoln, Nebraska, architect O.H. Placey. It has four corner towers and a central dome. Its north and west pediments include metal sculpture.[2] An unusual feature is the pedimental sculpture in two pediments, consisting of painted metal forms. These include symbolism of "cornucopia, wheat, pumpkins [which] call attention to the fertile agricultural foundation of the county, while the ship in full sail likely recalls the immigrant experience and the shields symbolize county government."[2] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2013a}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=89002221}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Washington County Courthouse / WN02-1 |publisher=National Park Service|author=Barbara Beving Long |date=November 8, 1989 |accessdate=July 6, 2018}} With {{NRHP url|id=89002221|photos=y|title=accompanying four photos from 1989}} External links
