		<title>1839 Courthouse Square - Berrien Springs, Michigan</title>
		<description><![CDATA[1839 Courthouse Square - Berrien Springs, Michigan
The courthouse that sits in this small town has a long historical line of information about the settling of this area of the state that is still available for research in the Berrien County Historical Association archives.&#160; 
The building, which had gone from being a courthouse to being a dance hall, the first campus for nearby Andrew&#039;s University, a community center, militia drill hall, church, and finally, low income apartments is now totally restored to the grandeur that was once common for this facility.&#160; The square contains Michigan&#8217;s oldest courthouse as part of the Midwest&#039;s most complete surviving mid-nineteenth century county government complex.&#160; Inside the building today is the home of a county museum and archives and serves as headquarters for the Berrien County Historical Association.&#160; The original buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places&#8217;
The Greek Revival building has the large columns, triangular pediment and white paint on the building to resemble the Greek temples and their white marble columns.&#160; 
The building appears very much like it did in 1839 but it has been furnished with reproduction furnishings.&#160;&#160; The large table in the hallway is original to the courthouse square and possibly served as a jury table. (...)]]></description>
