TAYLOR COUNTY COURTHOUSE
Bedford, Iowa


The cornerstone of this building was laid in June of 1892 and was completed the following spring. Many rooms in the courthouse have fireplaces; a spiral wrought iron staircase leads to the back of the courtroom. The clock in the dome and the building itself are illuminated at night. The clock is a Seth Thomas and only 82 of this model were built. The courthouse is a National Register historical landmark.
