Okeechobee County Courthouse,
Nineteenth Judicial Circuit, Okeechobee, Florida
The Okeechobee County Courthouse was built
in 1926 for a cost of $200,000.00. The handsome structure
is Greek Revival in design, with an ornate center staircase
and barrel tile roof. During restoration in 1976, painters
painted over the courthouse name, leading county commissioners
to refuse paying the bill until the courthouse was returned
to its proper splendor.
