Restored courthouse clock to be displayed in Cabarrus County courthouse this year
Summary
County staff said the community and county raised funds eight years ago to restore a historic clock; it will be displayed in the courthouse for the remainder of the year and later reinstalled, part of outreach to encourage residents to learn local history.
Cabarrus County staff said the county will display a restored courthouse clock for the remainder of the year as part of efforts to highlight local history and encourage residents to visit historic sites.
"8 years ago, the community rallied together to raise funds with the assistance of the county to bring the clock back to life," a staff member said, explaining that the clock will be on display until it is reinstalled. County staff framed the courthouse as a hub for learning about the county's history and noted partnerships with local organizations that help maintain historic sites.
Officials said the display is meant to draw residents into the courthouse and around the county to learn more about nearby historic sites and the broader story of the community's heritage.
