The Concordia Parish Courthouse, at 405 Carter St. in Vidalia in Concordia Parish, Louisiana, was built in 1939. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.^[1]

The 1939 courthouse replaced an earlier one demolished when, as part of a flood control project, the town of Vidalia was moved six blocks inland from the Mississippi River. It is a four-story brick and stone building with restrained Art Deco architecture. It has three-story wings on its sides and a small one-story wing on the rear. It was designed by J.W. Smith and Associates and was built by the M.T. Reed Construction Company.^[2]

The first floor originally was parish and school board offices, with second and third floors used for courthouses and the fourth story used as a jail.^[2]
