The Lion Block is a two-story commercial building at 216 West Main in Ness City, Kansas, built in 1887. Its name comes from a lion carved into its parapet wall by stonemason Henry Tilley. Victorian in style with Italianate elements such as round-topped windows, it has two storefronts framed in iron made by Capital Iron Works of Topeka, Kansas. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.
