Historic Courthouse Tours

Historic Hanover Courthouse and Old Stone Jail

Hanover County’s Historic Courthouse is open for free tours on second Thursdays from 10 AM to 2 PM (except Mar. & Dec.) Society Docents will be available to tell the story of this icon of American history, and under most circumstances will be happy to also give tours of the Old Stone Jail, which is next to the courthouse.

If you’re interested in a tour for your group or family on a different day, please reach out to us on our Contact page and we’ll work with you!
