Concerts, special events, noontime events and fundraisers draw thousands of folks, young and old, into the Square’s intimate, yet open, atmosphere.

The Old Court House, first dedicated on April 12, 1850, is a spectacular Greek Revival Courthouse. For years, it served as the center of law and local government for Montgomery County. Since its restoration in 2005, the Court House continues to serve the community by making its historic space available for meetings, receptions and other events.
