Länsstyrelsen i Västernorrlands Län Residenset is a government office located in Härnösand, Sweden. The building was designed by architect Olof Tempelman and is notable for being one of the earliest examples of neoclassical architecture in the country. Its unique size and form were significant for the time, reflecting the era's vision for government buildings and aiming to establish Härnösand as a center for education and public affairs.

The building currently serves as the private residence of the governor of Västernorrlands Län. It underwent significant exterior restoration in recent years, which included a change in its historical color scheme from yellow to white. The interior features a cohesive Gustavian design, contributing to its historical and architectural significance. After renovations, the building was reopened in 1929, marking its continued importance in the region.
