The first Somervell County courthouse was completed in1892 and burned down in 1893, to be rebuilt later that year using local limestone. It employs elements of the Romanesque Revival architectural style, features a mansard roof treatment and ornamental iron crestings. In 1902 a tornado damaged the courthouse. The roof and clock tower miraculously remained but severely damaged. The small rural county could only afford modest roof repair by local craftsmen which omitted the clock and some of the ornate details of the original roof. In 1986 the County Commissioners' Court voted to restore the county courthouse.
