The Palacio del Gobernador ("Palace of the Governor") is a government building in Intramuros, Manila that currently houses a number of offices under the Government of the Philippines. Located across from Plaza de Roma and built in its current form in 1976, the building currently houses the Intramuros Administration, the Commission on Elections and the National Capital Region office of the Home Development Mutual Fund. It also previously housed the Bureau of the Treasury until it relocated across Plaza de Roma to the Ayuntamiento de Manila.
The site of the present building was where the former residence of the Governor-General during the Spanish Colonial Era was located until an earthquake destroyed it in June 3, 1863.The Malacañang Palace then became the Governor-General's official residence.
