Tucson Landmarks: The Pima County Historic Courthouse sits downtown at 115 N. Church Ave. Designed in 1929, the courthouse stood for 86 years before renovations took it to its modern state.

This brightly-domed building obtained its “historic” designation from the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Over the years, the Courthouse has had many tenants, including the Sheriff’s Department, the School Superintendent’s Office and the Superior Court. Today, it houses offices for Pima County Attractions & Tourism, Pima County Administration, Visit Tucson, the Southern Arizona Heritage and Visitor Center and the University of Arizona Alfie Norville Gem and Mineral Museum.
