Motheo (Sesotho, meaning "foundation" or "cornerstone") was, until the municipal elections of 18 May 2011, a district of the Free State province of South Africa. At the time of the 2011 elections it was disestablished as a consequence of Mangaung Local Municipality being upgraded to a metropolitan municipality.
The Motheo District Municipality Head Office was based in Bloemfontein, which also serves as the capital of the Free State Province.[1]
