The Snohomish County Courthouse is a building located in Everett, Washington listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is built in Spanish Mission style on the site of a building destroyed in a fire in 1909.[2] The previous court building was completed in 1897 and the same architect (August F Heide) was available to design the rebuilding.

Proposals for extensions and remodeling from the 1940s onwards were generally not implemented, although two wings were added in 1953.[2] A five-story wing was added in 1967, built on the site of the 1908 two-story annex to the north; a similar building was built on the block east of the court complex in 1973.[2] In the early 2000s, grant funding was used to restore the fabric of the original 1911 building to its original appearance, including restoring damaged features.[2] From 2018 to 2021, the 1967 wing underwent a $74.8 million renovation that included the construction of a five-story expansion wing and an additional courtroom.[3]
