The Charles E. Simons Jr. Federal Court House is located in Aiken, South Carolina. It is significant for its association with the many federal construction programs of the Great Depression era.

The Court House was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on December 10, 2003.

The building was named for District Court judge Charles Earl Simons Jr. in 1986.
