Other Information:
The brick structure -- Madison County's third courthouse -- was
completed in 1901 [see postcard
view of courthouse]. It replaced a frame courthouse, which
in turn replaced an earlier wooden courthouse. The courthouse
was rehabilitated in 1983, but lack of space led county officials
to move to the present courthouse in 1996. A restoration of the
roof took place in 1999-2000 [see
photo], but the structure has been vacant since 1996 -- and
its future use is uncertain. The old courthouse square features
a statue of Dr. Crawford Long [see
photo], who was born in Danielsville in 1815.
