Former Govermnent Building is the former provincial government building of Limburg, located between Bouillonstraat and Lenculenstraat in the historic centre of the Dutch city of Maastricht. The building with its striking tower in expressionist brick architecture dates from the early 1930s, is a national monument and is currently used as a university building.

Parts of the building were thoroughly renovated in 2009-2010. Since 1990, it has been home to Universiteit Maastricht 's law faculty, referred to by both the Dutch name Faculty of Law and the English name Faculty of Law. In its current function, the building has some 20 teaching rooms, IT rooms and several lecture halls. For their relaxation, the approximately 3,400 law students have access to a courtyard garden with Law Café and terrace. Besides the Former Govermnent Building, the law faculty is also located in the Hustinx Mansion.
