Administered by Warren County Commissioners Office, 320 East Silver Street, Lebanon, Ohio 45039
Located Warren County Courthouse, 300 East Silver Street, Front addition, Lebanon, Ohio
Remarks:
John E. Day was the architect of the original courthouse, 1832-1835. The new front section, including the figure, was added in 1894. The figure originally wore a blindfold and held scales and a sword. Because of the figure's location, SOS! surveyor could not complete full condition assessment.
