The Madison County Courthouse is a historic Second Empire style courthouse located in London, Ohio.[1] Constructed in 1892, it was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on March 14, 1973.[2][3]

The courthouse was designed by George H. Maetzel.[3] During the 1974 Super Outbreak, the tornado that destroyed most of Xenia hit London, causing the Lady Justice statue at the top of the courthouse to fall over.[3]
