The Livingston County Courthouse is one of the most iconic landmarks in Downtown Pontiac. The current building was completed in 1875 and has Second Empire design, typified by the tall clock tower rising from its center. Admire the symmetrical form of this majestic site which has long served as a judicial center for the region. The building is made up of two stories, with towers marking the corners. The clock in the middle of the central tower was installed in 1892\. Inspect the intricate features of the building’s façade, including the elegant mansard roof and its patterned tiles. Gaze up at the U.S. flag crowning the tower and examine the statue of Abraham Lincoln outside. Beside it, you’ll find a memorial to those who fell in the Korean and Vietnam wars. The entrance is at the top of a set of steps, within an elegant white portico. Inside, take a look around the court rooms and imagine proceedings taking place here. Although the courthouse still has offices, it is less active than it once was. Consider the history of the building, which was designed by architect J.C. Cochrane, who also worked on the Iowa State Capitol. The present Livingston County Courthouse is the third county courthouse building, having replaced the wooden original from 1841 and the 1856 stone building, which burned down in 1874. The Livingston County Courthouse is located at the center of Pontiac, Illinois. Travel to the courthouse by bus to the stop right outside the complex or walk a few blocks north from the Vermilion River to get here. If you’re driving, leave your car in one of the many parking spaces outside. The courthouse is open to the public on weekdays, from morning until late afternoon. Wander around the rest of the city center to see its other treasures, including the Welcome to Downtown Pontiac Sign, the Pontiac Oakland Auto Museum and Fell Park. ### Popular places to visit ![Illinois showing interior views](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621532658423/1d22f70c-6883-42c2-9d9e-5baaf8714dca.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Pontiac-Oakland Automobile Museum Visit a charming family-run museum where the owners’ passion for vintage cars is on clear display throughout all the exhibits.
