Description
Photograph of the exterior view of Sonoma County Court House, before April 18, 1906. A tall stairway leads up to the portico entrance to the building. The three-story building features decorative statues above the pediments on the roof. There's a dome tower near the center of the building. The yard surrounding the building is well manicured and decorated with an assortment of trees and plants. Several horse-drawn carriages are parked along the sidewalk in front of the building. Other buildings are visible in the background.
The building was completely destroyed during the Great 1906 San Francisco Earthquake (April 18, 1906).
