Welcome to Paris! On the Oklahoma border, this northeast Texas county is proud of its own “Eiffel Tower.”

Yes, I wear boots. I’m a Texan!

Lamar County is separated from Oklahoma on the north by the Red River.

The Lamar County Courthouse is downtown. Built in 1917, it replaced an earlier one that burned down.

This courthouse integrates the original cornerstone from the 1896 courthouse that burned down.
