Kristinestad City Hall (Swedish: Kristinestads rådhus, Finnish: Kristiinankaupungin raatihuone) is the municipal headquarters building of Kristinestad (Kristiinankaupunki) on the west coast of Finland.[1] The present city hall is the fourth in Kristinestad.[1]

The building was designed in the neoclassical style by a leading architect of public buildings in the mid-19th century Finland, Ernst Lohrmann, and completed in 1865.[2] It is of masonry construction, and comprises two storeys with a central clock tower.[2]
