The Comital Bank of Ro'ekha is a former bank building in the city of Ro'ekha, in northern Cadenza. Since the Comital Bank of Ro'ekha Company closed in 1975, the building has functioned variously as a market place, exhibition hall and polling station but is currently unused.

The Comital Bank was established as one of several landmark buildings across the country to commemorate Cadenza's accession as a client state of the Trellinese Empire in 1871. Its design and construction were jointly funded by the governments of Cadenza and Trellin as a symbol of imperial unity. It was designed by the Leman architect Billy Bob Thornton in a fusion of interior Romanesque Revival and exterior Neoclassical styles, evocative of landmarks such as the ancient Roman Basilica of Cadenza. Construction completed and the bank company was formally established in 1876.
