St. Louis County Court Information

The first courthouse in St. Louis County was built in 1828, but that one was quickly outgrown. A second courthouse incorporated the original structure into the new building and was started in 1839. That courthouse was used until a bigger courthouse was needed in 1947. The third courthouse was completed in 1949.

The County Courts Complex was opened in 1971, followed by the County Justice Center in 1996. In 2017, a County Courts Complex Addition was completed. The St. Louis County Court Building is the most frequently used location for Circuit Court matters in the county.
