Old Tombstone Courthouse

The Cochise Country Courthouse in Tombstone, Arizona was built in 1882 and is now a museum. One of the most authentic sights in Tombstone, it's been designated a State Historic Park and contains a wealth of history and artifacts, including information and diagrams of the famous gunfight at the OK Corral between Wyatt Earp and the Clantons. This image shows the courtroom where many Western outlaws were tried and subsequently hanged in the adjacent gallows.
