Rising over Livingston’s town square since the late 1800s, the Overton County Courthouse is a reminder of the community’s early days and the decisions that helped shape life in the Upper Cumberland. Once a simple center for county business, it’s now the landmark everyone orients around. You’ll often hear “meet me at the courthouse” whether you’re headed to a festival, a concert at Central Park, or a family parade on the square. The streets that spill out from its front steps are lined with salons, boutiques, offices, restaurants, and local shops, so the courthouse doesn’t just represent Livingston’s past; it anchors the everyday rhythm of downtown and the small businesses that keep the town thriving.
