in Paint Rock Texas!
First Permant Courthouse for Concho County, built in 1886. Replaced crude early structure. Architets were the brothers F.E. and Oscar Ruffini, who also planned and constructed the First Main Building at the University of Texas. As F.E. Ruffini lived only long enought to draw plans for this courthouse. His brother completed it. Architecture is "French Secon Intere." Use of Rusticated Stone - Which came from a Quarry only a few miles away - is unusual in this style.
