The Nassau County Courthouse, also known as the Old Nassau County Courthouse and the Historic Nassau County Courthouse, is a historic two-story red brick courthouse building located at 416 Centre Street in Fernandina Beach, Nassau County, Florida. Designed in the Classical Revival style, it was built in 1891 and features cast-iron Corinthian columns and a massive bell tower and steeple. Meneely and Co. of West Troy, New York, cast the bell for the tower, which was used as a fire alarm for many years.A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture, 1989, Gainesville: University of Florida Press, p. 69, Florida's Historic Courthouses: Nassau County Courthouse listingNassau County Clerk of Courts: Information on the Historic Courthouse and the Judicial Annex Read more on Wikipedia
