This building, erected in 1792, served as the
second courthouse of Russell County and is one
of the earliest public buildings still standing
in Southwest Virginia.
Russell County was
formed in 1786 from Washington County and
originally encompassed the greater part of what
now is Lee, Scott, Wise, Dickenson, Buchanan
and Tazewell counties. The county sold the
building when the county seat was moved to
the town of Lebanon in 1818.
