Completed in 1900 and long celebrated as Baltimore’s “Temple of Justice,” the Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr. Courthouse is a masterpiece of civic architecture. Inside, visitors encounter marble facades, monumental brass doors, intricate mosaic floors, rich mahogany paneling, and some of the most striking courtrooms in the country. The corridors and courtrooms feature domed stained-glass skylights and murals depicting pivotal moments in Maryland and American history, from General Washington resigning his commission in Annapolis to the British surrender at Yorktown. Join Baltimore Heritage board member and legal historian Derek van de Walle for a special behind-the-scenes tour highlighting the building’s art, architecture, and stories spanning more than a century of Baltimore legal history.
