The governor-general of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland (also known as the Central African Federation) served as the representative of the British monarch in the country. The federation was formed on 1 August 1953 from the former colonies of Southern Rhodesia, Northern Rhodesia and Nyasaland, and was formally dissolved on 31 December 1963.

As Salisbury (now Harare) became the capital of the Federation as well as Southern Rhodesia, Government House, previously used as the residence of the Governor of Southern Rhodesia, became the residence of the Governor-General of the Federation.^[1] During this time, the Governor of Southern Rhodesia resided in Governor's Lodge in the suburb of Highlands.^[2]
