Jenkins County Courthouse is a historic county courthouse in Millen, Georgia. Designed in a Neoclassical Revival architecture style by L.F. Goodrich, it was built in 1910.[2] Unlike most courthouses in Georgia of the period, this one is three stories tall. It has columns that are plain and fluted, which are on high bases. The building has a bracketed cornice. On top is a copper-domed clock tower. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 18, 1980.[3]
