Karlskrona Residence, Governmental listed building complex in Karlskrona, Sweden.

The Karlskrona Residence features two floors with a basement level, centered around a grand hall accessed through the entrance from Vallgatan street.

Architect Gustaf Lindgren completed this governmental residence in 1911, replacing an older building from 1832 that stood on Ronnebygatan street.

The building's large dining room displays a decorative ceiling with naval symbols and the monogram of King Gustaf V, reflecting Karlskrona's naval importance.

The residence maintains its early 1900s character with restored original color schemes, including green silk-covered walls in the salon and red tones in the pillar hall.

The Blekingerummet room on the upper floor presents modern furnishings and local art pieces while offering views across the Baltic Sea.
