Palace of Governor-General in Kiev, Administrative palace in Lypky district, Kyiv, Ukraine

The palace stood at the intersection of Instytutska and Levashovska streets, featuring a cast iron porch supported by columns and a three-window annex.

Following its purchase by the state treasury in 1833, the palace served as the residence for Governor Generals of Southwestern Krai until 1914.

The building transformed from a private residence to a symbol of administrative power, housing both Russian governors and Ukrainian state officials over time.

The location where the palace once stood is now a small city park, created in 1925 after the building's destruction in 1920.

The palace grounds included an orchard that was part of Klov Park, with portions of the original garden remaining visible today.
