Luna County Courthouse
Southwest Region
Constructed 1910
The Luna County Courthouse, designed by W. B. Corwin, with tall clock tower and Greek style portico was completed in 1910. The courthouse is an interesting variant of the Neo-Classical style with elongated proportions. The Courthouse was the site of the controversial trials of 30 Villistas of the 1916 raid on Columbus, four of whom were hanged in the yard of the county jail next door. The entire Luna Courthouse complex is listed on the state and national registers of historic places.
