April 2011

Burke County Courthouse in Waynesboro, Georgia is a "carpenter Romanesque" (perhaps a vernacular Romanesque Revival) building completed in 1857.[1] It is one of just four courthouses in Georgia that were built in the 1850s and still serve as courthouses.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[3] L.F. Goodrich is credited as the building's architect (likely for renovations or redesign work) and he also designed the Jenkins County Courthouse in Millen, Georgia.[4]

It is a two-story structure built of red brick that is covered with a gritty cement-like mixture "scored to look like very perfect brick"; this treatment does not appear on any other Georgia courthouse but does appear on the Hay House in Macon, Georgia. It has a clock tower that rises in five stages to a pyramidal roof with pedimented clocks. The building also has two winding staircases at the front of the building. A two-story annex was built in 1940 and joined by an open bridge on two levels at the rear of the building.[2]
