The Seminole County Courthouse in Donalsonville, Georgia is a two-story Beaux Arts-style courthouse that was built in 1922. It was renovated in 1977-78. It has an Ionic tetrastyle projecting entrance with two-story columns.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
A 1980 architectural survey form about the courthouse asserted that it "is the most outstanding building in Donalsonville, a town of 3,500 people. Architecturally it is one of the more outstanding 1920's courthouse structures in the state, because of the plan and the interior and exterior detailing."[2]
It is also a contributing building in the NRHP-listed Donalsonville Historic District.
