A two-dimensional exactly solvable model of a conformal quantum field theory is developed which is self-dual and has Z/sub N/ symmetry. The operator algebra, the correlation functions, and the anomalous dimensions of all fields are calculated for this model, which describes self-dual critical points in Z/sub N/-symmetric statistical systems.
