The Sherman U.S. Post Office and Courthouse, also known as Sherman U.S. Federal Building, in Sherman, Texas, was built during 1906-1907. It reflects Renaissance Revival architecture. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. It served historically as a post office (until 1962) and has served as a federal courthouse (continuously, through 2000 NRHP listing).

It is a three-story limestone-clad building on a granite base with a red clay tiled hipped roof.
