If it’s not raining, we can be outside in the park sketching this beautiful building and the First Reformed Church and cemetery of Hackensack. 

The courthouse rotunda is on the register of National Historic landmarks. There are several courtrooms in the Rotunda with hand painted murals adorning the walls. The Rotunda, with its marble and stained glass, and the courtrooms, were featured in scenes from the movies Hackers, Devil's Advocate and Before and After.

Fun fact: The first Bergen County courthouse was in Quacksack. 


The entrance is on Court Street across from the church. To go in the courthouse, we have to go through security just like the airport. So leave your pointy items at home. Bathrooms and water are inside.


Parking:

Street parking and the courthouse visitor parking. Parkmobile app.
