The Old Minnehaha County Courthouse in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, is a historic landmark that dates back to the late 19th century. Completed in 1893, the courthouse is a prime example of Richardsonian Romanesque architecture, characterized by its use of native Sioux Quartzite stone, rounded arches, and robust, fortress-like appearance. The building originally served as the administrative hub for Minnehaha County and has since been transformed into the Old Courthouse Museum. The museum now hosts a variety of exhibits that explore the history and culture of the region, making it a significant cultural and historical asset for the community.
