The present Robertson County courthouse was built in 1872. It was the first and only courthouse to serve Robertson County. The contract was awarded to G.M. Williams, a local builder, who was also credited with its design. Mid-way through construction the city found they did not have the funds to complete the project so the F. & A.M. Masons Blue Lodge Chapter donated the money for the second story which was reserved for there use. At the time of construction the courthouse was said to be the only brick structure in the county. The additions to the sides were added in the 1960’s.
