}}Bartholomew County Courthouse is a historic courthouse located at Columbus, Bartholomew County, Indiana. It was designed by noted Indiana architect Isaac Hodgson, built in 1871-1874 at the cost of $250,000, and dedicated in 1874.[2] Construction was by McCormack and Sweeny. The building was hailed as "the finest in the West" upon its completion.[2]

It is a three-story, Second Empire-style red-brick building trimmed in limestone. It features a mansard roof, corner pavilions, Corinthian-order portico, and a six-level clock tower.[3]{{rp|2–3}} The clock tower is 154 feet tall. A six-inch thick, 10-ten clock bell was installed in 1875. The clock's weighted mechanism were replaced with an electric motor in 1940 and a 900-pound weight fell.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 15, 1979.[1] It is located in the Columbus Historic District.
