The Old Grayson County Courthouse and Clerk's Office is a historic county courthouse located at Galax, Grayson County, Virginia. The Old Grayson County Courthouse was built in 1834, and consists of a two-story central block with flanking two-story wings and a one-story addition on the rear north side which was built in the 1870s and expanded in 1988. The Old clerk's Office, built in 1810, is a simple one-room brick structure. In 1850 the county seat moved to its present location in Independence, and the courthouse was subsequently used as a private residence, as a hotel, an apartment house, and a hay barn.[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.[1]
