Elgin County Courthouse
The Elgin County Court House was originally designed by architect John Turner and built in 1854. After a fire in 1898, the original building was repaired and enlarged by architect N.R. Darrach, resulting in the present Palladian style, expressed by its symmetry, rectangular and round-arched openings, porticos, and by the use of classic detailing such as quoins, keystones, cornices and pediments, the whole culminating in a look of serene dignity.
