The Clarke County Courthouse is located in Osceola, Iowa, United States. The first courthouse for Clarke County was a two-story frame building. It had to be abandoned in 1883, and it was replaced by a brick structure in 1892. The county outgrew that building and the present L-shaped structure was completed in 1956.[1][2]
