The Madisonville Bank, in Madisonville, Louisiana, was built around 1900 and renovated extensively in 1919.^[2]

It is located on the corner of Cedar Street and E. St. John Street, a corner also swept by Covington/Louisiana Highway 21/Louisiana Highway 1077. It was built as a two-story gable-front building with simple storefront and a corner entrance. It gained a detailed classical wraparound storefront on two sides in 1919. This includes square pilasters with Corinthian capitals defining three bays on the front and three on the side.^[2]

It is questionable whether a brick dado (lower wall) on its front dates from the 1919 renovation; it seems incompatible.^[2]

Its interior includes its original pressed tin ceiling and original bank vault.^[2]

It is one of two architecturally significant buildings from the 1890-1920 era surviving in Madisonville; the other is a large Queen Anne house.^[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.^[1]
