Kraków Governorate was an administrative-territorial unit (guberniya) of Congress Poland of the Russian Empire.

Kraków Governorate was created from the Kraków Voivodeship by the Tsar's Decree in 7 March 1837. In 1842, it was renamed Kielce Governorate, and then, with the introduction of a new administrative division in Congress Poland on 1 January 1844, Kielce Governorate was merged with Sandomierz Governorate and received the name Radom Governorate.
