The Sherman County Courthouse, at 630 O St. in Loup City, Nebraska, is a historic Beaux Arts-style county courthouse that was built in 1920. Serving Sherman County still, it is a 60-by-74-foot (18 m × 23 m) building, topped by a cornice, and above that, mutules and a parapet.[1][2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1] It was deemed important as a good example of a "County Citadel"-type courthouse.[2]
