Greenbrier County Courthouse and Lewis Spring is a historic courthouse building and spring house located at Lewisburg, Greenbrier County, West Virginia. The courthouse was built in 1837, and is a two-three story, "T"-shaped brick building. The front facade features four large plastered brick columns. Atop the building is a cupola belfry. The Lewis Spring is enclosed in a small, well-preserved stone building. Adjacent is a high stone retaining wall constructed between 1785-1795.

The courthouse building was built from local brick by mason John W. Dunn (who was also an architect, but is not credited with the courthouse's design).

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
