1	This graceful building was added to the National Register of
Historic Places in 1986. Its eclectic style of Greek, Roman and (	Egyptian Revival, complete with Renaissance dome, has been
|	called a “good example of a primitive but well done Classic
I	Revival”. It was built for $5,000 in 1905. Sixty-four years later
|	the winds of Hurricane Camille blew the dome away. The live
oak trees on the grounds that were used for public executions now shade concerts and civic gatherings. Open Monday — !	Friday 8-4.
