Page County Courthouse (Iowa)
The Page County Courthouse in Clarinda, Iowa, United States was built in 1887. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981 as a part of the County Courthouses in Iowa Thematic Resource.〔 The courthouse is the fourth building the county has used for court functions and county administration.
==History==
The first building erected to house county business in Page County was destroyed, along with county records, in a fire in 1858. Two years prior to that a two-story frame building was constructed as a courthouse, but the space provided inadequate and court was held in churches and school buildings. In 1873 a simple building was constructed on the town square in Clarinda for $7,456.〔
The foundations for the current courthouse were laid in 1885 and the building, completed in 1887, cost $86,500 to construct.〔 The state fire marshal ordered the removal of the clock tower in 1950 because of falling bricks. It was removed in 1951 and replaced with a wrought iron railing and flag pole. The courthouse was gutted in a fire on December 11, 1991. A bond issue was passed by voters in August 1992 for $875,000 and another $175,000 in private donations was raised to replace the clock tower.〔 The restored courthouse was rededicated on June 5, 1994.
