The Fillmore County Courthouse is a historic building in Geneva, Nebraska, and the courthouse for Fillmore County. It was built in 1892 by L. F. Pardue for a cost of $46,176.55, and designed in the Richardsonian Romanesque style by architect George E. McDonald.[2] It was partly modelled after the Gage County Courthouse.[2] Clocks on each side of the tower, designed by W. P. McCall, were added in 1909.[2] The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since December 12, 1978.[1]

McDonald is also credited with designing the Elk County Courthouse (Howard, Kansas), Bates County Courthouse in Butler, Missouri, and Johnson County Courthouse (Courthouse Square, Warrensburg, Missouri).
