Photograph of Falls County Courthouse in Marlin, TX. Two rows of cars parked diagonally sit in a parking lot in front of a flat-topped white building. A green lawn with tall, green trees and bushes growing in it surrounds the courthouse whose entrance faces the camera. A short set of stairs leads up to the entrance of the building which has three brown doors with large windows in them. Above the doors is a row of windows, then tall grey rectangles followed by another row of windows, which is repeated one more. This section of the building rises higher than the parts extending from either side of the courthouse's entryway. The parts of the building on either side of the tall center section have one row of windows at ground level and two rows of windows above them, with each column of windows divided by rectangular sections that project slightly from the rest of the building. A tall, thin metal structure rises from atop the center of the building and has a few wires hanging from it onto the courthouse's flat roof.
