Bechham County Courthouse, Sayre, Oklahoma.

Built in 1911, located just one half block from the railroad tracks, the Courthouse has served as the center for civic and legal activity for over a century. One of the few Oklahoma courthouses topped by a large dome.

The beautiful design won the courthouse a 30 second appearance in John Ford’s The Grapes of Wrath.

Added to the US National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
