The White County Courthouse stands at Court Square in Searcy, Arkansas's county seat, a two-story neoclassical structure erected in 1871 from stone and brick. Its distinctive H-shaped plan features projecting side wings added in 1912, while the ground floor showcases dressed stone and the upper floor brick facing. The entrance displays a rounded-arch arcade supporting a Greek pedimented temple front with four fluted Corinthian columns. An elaborate cupola topped with a hip roof and fitted with clock faces crowns the composition. The building underwent restoration by the Civil Works Administration in 1933 and gained listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.
