The Grant County Courthouse is a four-story Art Deco-style building constructed during 1929-30.[2]

It was designed by architects Smith and English of Hutchinson, Kansas, and it was built by contractor J.M. Fuller.[2] The district also includes a four-story addition that extended the building, and a connected jail annex.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1] It was deemed significant for politics/government association and for its architecture: the courthouse is one of few Art Deco-style courthouses in Kansas.[2]
