Under a neat white stucco sheath, the 1919 Hudspeth County Courthouse is the Southwest's only in-use governmental structure of adobe. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it is a popular snapshot subject. Architects Buetell and Hardie designed the building in a Mediterranean style reminiscent of Renaissance Revival.
