Greensville County Courthouse Complex is a historic courthouse complex located at Emporia, Virginia. The three contributing buildings are the two-story, porticoed courthouse built in 1834, the clerk's office built in 1894, and the former Greensville Bank Building, now the county administrator's office, in 1900 and 1907. The courthouse originally took a Palladian form, but was remodeled between 1907 and 1910 to take a Beaux-Arts appearance. The clerk's office was considerably enlarged in 1916 and the Georgian-style facade added in 1961. The interior of the county administrator's office features elaborate pressed-tin walls and ceilings manufactured by the local concern, H.J. Klugel. The buildings are set upon the courthouse square, which includes a cannon honoring residents who participated in World War I, a Confederate monument.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
