Cleveland County Courthouse (Shelby, North Carolina)

Historic Cleveland County Courthouse is a courthouse building located at Shelby, Cleveland County, North Carolina. It was built in 1907, and is a two-story, rectangular, Classical Revival-style building sheathed in a smooth ashlar veneer above a rusticated first floor. It features tetrastyle Corinthian order porticoes at each of the four entrances and a three-stage cupola atop the flat roof. Courthouse offices moved to a new building in 1974, and the old courthouse houses offices, and public meeting hall. It was also home to the Cleveland County Historical Museum, which closed in 2012 and became the Earl Scruggs Center.^[3]
