The Old Washington County Courthouse in Oklahoma is a reinforced concrete building that was built in 1913. It was designed by P.H. Weathers in Second Renaissance Revival style.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981.[1]

Washington County was founded in 1907, but it was not until 1912 that a bond issue to fund the courthouse was passed, on the third attempt.[2]
