The Assiniboia Court House, with its symmetry of design, brick detailing and handsome main entrance, is an excellent example of Sharon's modified Colonial Revival. Its unique placement, at the head of Centre Street, greatly adds to the aesthetic value of the building. . This historical marker was erected in 1988 by Government of Saskatchewan. It is in Assiniboia in Lake of the Rivers No. 72 Saskatchewan
