History

The first courthouse in Elkton was completed in 1792. It was renovated in 1884 but by the early 1900s, county officials realized more room was needed and decided to build a new courthouse. This "new" courthouse was built in 1940 and is still in use today.[1]

gollark: Okay, work it out, bye.
gollark: Hmm.
