The Lawrence County Courthouse is a historic governmental building in Ironton, Ohio, United States. It was designed by Richards, McCarty & Bulford and built in 1907 after the previous courthouse burned. Built in the Neoclassical style with a domed roof, it was expanded in 1978 by the addition of a rear annex.[1]

Lawrence County was formed on December 20, 1816 from parts of Gallia County and Scioto County with its county seat at Burlington.[2]
