When the Harrison County seat was relocated from Magnolia to Logan in 1876, a combination of $5,000 from taxes and $9,000 in private donations helped construct a two-story brick courthouse in the town square. With a growing county population and a need for additional office space, the brick courthouse was replaced with a three-story steel and concrete block building accented by Bedford limestone that was dedicated November 3, 1911. The courthouse still serves residents of Harrison County today.
