Kentucky's Governor's Mansion is the official residence of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. It has been home to 26 Kentucky governors since 1914. The mansion serves as the governor’s private home and an official public building. It is the center of the governor’s social, political, and ceremonial activities.

The mansion was completed in 1914 in the Beaux-Arts design, which took much of its inspiration from the Petit Trianon palace at Versailles, and its interiors are designed in French neoclassical themes. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Kentucky's Governor's Mansion is one of the rare American executive residences that are open for public tours.
