The Old Randolph County Courthouse is a historic former county courthouse at Broadway and Vance Street in the center of Pocahontas, Arkansas. It is a two story Italianate Victorian brick structure, built in 1872, regionally distinctive for its architectural style. It has brick quoined corners, and a low hip roof with small central gables on each elevation, and a square cupola with flared roof. Its eaves are studded with paired brackets and dentil moulding. It served as the county courthouse until 1940, and has since then has housed city offices, the local public library, and other offices.
