The Putnam County Courthouse is a historic governmental building in downtown Ottawa, Ohio, United States. A two-story building,〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 2. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 1182.〕 located at 245 E. Main Street,〔(Putnam County Court ), Putnam County Court, n.d. Accessed 2010-08-12.〕 it was built in 1912 in the Beaux-Arts style of architecture.〔 ==Previous courthouses== The present courthouse is the fourth such structure to serve Putnam County. When the county was organized in 1834, the village of Kalida was designated the county seat,〔 and a wooden courthouse was built there. It only served the county for four years, being replaced by a larger brick courthouse and jail complex in 1838. This building remained in use for more than a quarter century, but it was ruined by a devastating fire on December 18, 1864. With no courthouse, discussion arose about moving the county seat to Ottawa, which was growing more steadily than Kalida and was served by a railroad line, and which was located closer to the center of the county.〔(Putnam County Clerk of Courts ), Putnam County Clerk of Courts, n.d. Accessed 2010-08-12.〕 An election in 1866 resulted in the seat being moved to Ottawa,〔 and the village paid $15,000 for the erection of a new courthouse.〔
