Paulding County Courthouse — Paulding, Ohio

An 1886 building, similar in appearance to the Lenawee County Courthouse in Adrian, Michigan. Edward Fallis, a native of Toledo, designed both structures.

 

Paulding is, by all accounts, Ohio's most topographically featureless county, and it remained sparsely populated until the final decades of the nineteenth century. Between 1880 and 1890, its population nearly doubled, from 13,485 to 25,932.
