The Osceola County Courthouse is a handsome red brick building in Kissimmee's small historic downtown, dating from 1890. It sits at the intersection of US-17/92 and US-192, the two main arteries that once defined the town before the highway strip took over. The courthouse dome and clock tower are visible from several blocks away and give the downtown its only real vertical landmark.
The surrounding block has a handful of preserved late-Victorian commercial buildings that give a sense of what Kissimmee looked like before the theme park era. It's an easy walk from the lakefront and takes about 20 minutes to see properly.
