Rathaus Zeulenroda, Town hall in Zeulenroda-Triebes, Germany

Rathaus Zeulenroda is a neoclassical administrative building with a prominent tower topped by a statue of Themis. The Greek goddess of justice holding scales and sword stands at its peak, defining the market square's appearance.

Zeulenroda held town rights from 1438, and a fire in 1790 destroyed almost the entire town, including the old town hall. The present building was erected between 1825 and 1827 to plans by the local hosiery manufacturer Christian Heinrich Schopper. Its classicist scale was considered large enough for a major city.

The tower is crowned by a 3.30-metre statue of Themis, Greek goddess of justice, holding a sword in her right hand and scales in her left. Sculptor Carl Friedrich Döll of Altenburg designed it, and the Lattermann iron foundry in Morgenröthe cast it in 1828.

The building is located on the market square and visible from multiple sides, making it easy to view all its details. It remains a protected monument serving administrative purposes, so only the exterior is accessible to visitors.

Themis is 3.30 metres tall, holds a sword in her right hand and scales in her left, and was cast in 1828 at the Lattermann iron foundry in Morgenröthe in the Vogtland. The tower she crowns rises 38 metres above the market square.
