The original Woods County Courthouse was built in 1904. In Alva’s early years, the courthouse lawn was a beehive of activity including circus parades, political speeches and 4th of July celebrations. In 1957 the old courthouse was condemned by the fire marshal, torn down and replaced by the existing courthouse.
