The 1854 Courthouse which survived Stoneman's Raid in 1865, is one of the finest examples of pre-Civil War architecture in the state. Throughout its grand old rooms, including the beautiful second floor courtroom and public gathering place, the life and history of Rowan County is presented through displays and interpretive exhibits. The Museum also operates two historic house museums: The Utzman-Chambers House, 1815 and Old Stone House, 1766.
