County Hall, Grade II listed municipal building in Carmarthen, Wales.

The County Hall features fifteen bays of grey Forest of Dean stone with curved turreted end bays and a decorative metal balcony on the first floor.

The building, completed in 1955, stands on the former site of Carmarthen gaol, which was designed by John Nash and established in 1792.

The central entrance displays heraldic devices carved by David Evans, representing the connection between local governance and Welsh cultural heritage.

The facility serves as the headquarters of Carmarthenshire County Council, hosting cabinet meetings, planning committees, and public consultations throughout the year.

A six-metre sculpture of a bicycle, created by Wild Creations, stands at the southwest corner since 2018 to commemorate the Tour of Britain.
