説明Built in 1862, this Classical Revival-style courthouse was designed by James R. Carrigan, and was inspired by the work of Sir Christopher Wren. The building replaced a previous courthouse on the same site, which was destroyed in a large fire that tore through the downtown area of Danville in 1860. Shortly after its completion, the Battle of Perryville took place nearby on October 8, 1862, with the courthouse being temporarily utilized as a field hospital, with other buildings around Perryville and Danville being utilized to care for the thousands of casualties and wounded soldiers, with the courthouse remaining in use as a hospital well into 1863. During the time, the county court was hosted in the C. W. Mitchell Building. Following its use as a hospital, the courthouse required extensive repairs, with these not being completed until 1875. Originally located in the middle of the block, the building on the corner parcel adjacent to the courthouse burned in the 1930s, and the land was subsequently donated by Emma Weisiger to the City of Danville and Boyle County, creating a large courthouse square originally known as Mid-town Park, and now known as Weisiger Memorial Park, after Emma Weisiger’s brother Malcom Weisiger. The park was further renovated in 1961, 1987, and 2017. The courthouse features a red brick exterior, hipped roof, large octagonal tower with brackets, a dome, a lantern, corinthian columns, clocks, louver openings, arched windows, and a weather vane on top, a tall front portico on the second floor of the front facade with corinthian columns and a front pediment, large two-over-two and nine-over-nine double-hung windows, with the windows on the side of the building featuring transoms, arched entry doors on the first floor of the portico structure separated by pilasters and featuring fanlight transoms, six-over-six double-hung windows on the first floor and rear annexes, and two rear additions made in the early 20th Century and late 20th Century, with the later addition being larger and featuring corinthian pilasters and a portico similar to the original courthouse, with corinthian columns. The courthouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, and is a contributing structure in the Danville Commercial District Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
