Page 3 of 3 An elevator was added in the late 1950's. Since the stairway for the courthouse created an open shaft for ventilation, the elevator was place in the opening without any structural changes.

The historic courthouse and surrounding square has also been the background for many movies, television programs and commercials. Information obtained from the Ellis County Museum                |
