The Green County Courthouse in Monroe, Wisconsin, is the subject here, and the image is dated around 1908 in a record that notes its details come from an older caption card and have not been independently verified. Monroe, the county seat, grew with a large Swiss immigrant community whose dairy and cheese-making traditions shaped the town's economy. Pictures like this one, gathered under the Dunlop Society's courthouse series, were often made to document the civic buildings of the period, so the photograph offers a record of how county government presented itself in the early twentieth century.
