It served as a city hall for this city until the present City Hall was built in 1899. The courthouse served as a jail for the county, and much of the time for the city. It still serves as a holding facility for both. Originally built of stone and later stucco covered, the building still maintains its historical integrity. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 14, 1979, as part of the Eureka Historic District. The interior has been tastefully redone to improve energy efficiency and acoustics. Court hours are Mon., Tucs,. and Fri. from 9:30 to a.m., but Judge Blouch has been very cooperative and friendly, opening up the building for historical lours. He feels it is important for people to know how a court system works, especially the young people, so he and Court Clerk Sherry Nedreberg, are working on a skit to help explain this. The first to avail themselves of this method of learning will be Mr. Ned's class on April 23.
