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. 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.
