The first floor of the Jackson County Historic Courthouse contains the Welcome Center and Historic Archives. While we are not a 'museum', we invite anyone interested in beautiful architecture, antique furniture pieces, and a friendly atmosphere to stroll through. When available, staff members are always happy to chat about the history of the Historic Courthouse. We also have display cases that contain a variety of fascinating exhibits that are updated quarterly. The second floor is the courtroom, fully restored and finished with vintage prestige and modern amenities.
Our second floor Courtroom is a beautiful setting that can accommodate any event from an intimate celebration to a large conference. Original wood floors and reproduced (but comfy!) courtroom seating makes this a stunning backdrop for your celebration. Capacity: tabled up to 80 guests, audience seating 240 (plus balcony), standing 120+. Media capabilities via a 25’ movie screen with HDMI connection, full audio, and internet. Our warming kitchen is equipped with warming unit, industrial refrigerator, microwave, and popcorn trolley.
