Stone Statues are decorative objects and occasional obstacles in The Legend of Zelda. They have two basic designs, depending on the direction they face, and as they are scenery tiles, always share the dungeon's palette. The right-facing statues resemble a Zora while the left-facing statues resemble a dragon. In their debut appearance, Stone Statues appear in the first and last rooms of every labyrinth for decoration. Some rooms have Stone Statues that spit out fireballs, often in groups. Since they are invincible, their projectiles cannot be halted.

While the generic Stone Statues do not appear in later games barring reissues and BS Zelda no Densetsu, various more specific types have taken their basic role. These include Ra and Mau in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, Medusa from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, and Rocklops statues in a few games.
