This is Wright County’s third courthouse. It was designed using Utilitarian and Romanesque styles by architect W.R. Parsons & Son, with construction beginning in 1891. The three-story multi-gabled structure is constructed of red brick. Extensive renovation in 1974 modified the appearance somewhat. The courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1981.
