Trigg County Justice Center

The new Trigg County Courthouse will now be known as the new Trigg County Justice Center.
Driving by the 'near finished' building, in the center of downtown Cadiz, one can't help but feel that the quaint little town has moved up into a much more modern setting than ever before.
Towering above the businesses and landscape, none come close to the height of the new building.
Looking as though it were always there, tucked among the older buildings, while capturing the allure and look of the town's older architecture, it blends in well with downtown.
We would like to invite you to come and have a look at this impressive building that has managed;
through much thought and planning by its builders, to earn the approval of our citizens as a most
welcome addition to our town.

The old courthouse served us well, but this newest building has catapulted us into the twenty-first century.

 

 

 

 

This page was created in April 1996 by WILLIS PATRICK OLIVER as part of the KyGenWeb Project

with 1,870 visitors before November 9, 1996. It is with great appreciation that we say "thank you"

to Pat and JULIE GIBBS for all of their genealogical material, work , sweat and tears.

Pat and Julie are the county coordinators for most of the surrounding counties - "drop in and see them”.
