The Cedar County Courthouse is located in Tipton, Iowa. Rochester was Cedar County's first county seat. The log building built there as a courthouse and jail may never have been used for those purposes.[1] The county seat was moved to Tipton in 1841, but the frame courthouse building was not completed until 1845. It was replaced in 1859 with a brick courthouse that was extensively renovated and enlarged in 1889. The present courthouse was begun in 1965 and completed three years later for about $595,000.[2]
