The district court of Rudolstadt was a German district court from 1879 to 1952 with its seat in Rudolstadt in Thuringia.

It was responsible for the Principality of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt, the Meinigischen Kreis Saalfeld and the Prussian District Ziegenrück . At the same time, the Rudolstadt district court , which had existed until then , was repealed with the Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt law of March 1, 1879 and its business was transferred to the newly established district court.
