| Description | Eight photographs taken by Kevin Lawrence on January 5, 2024 of the Circuit Courtroom on the east side of the second floor of the Daviess County Courthouse in Washington, Indiana. A smaller Circuit Courtroom was created after a December 1, 1985 fire that necessitated significant repairs. The original Circuit Courtroom built in 1929 was much larger. After the 1985 fire it was divided into two courtrooms: the Circuit Courtroom on the south end and the Superior Courtroom on the north end. Paul Bean of Washington fabricated and installed the dark wood judge's bench, witness box, railings, jury box, wainscotting and crown molding in both courtrooms. A major alteration of the interior of the courthouse began shortly after these photos were taken. Except for the first floor atrium, all of the rooms in the 1929 courthouse were modified including taking out some walls and removing counters and historic fixtures. |
