Kymmenegård County, or Kymenkartano Province, was a county of Sweden from 1775 to 1809, and a county of Grand Duchy of Finland from 1809 to 1831.
The county was created in 1775 by dividing the Savolax and Kymmenegård County (, ) into two parts: Savolax and Karelia County and Kymmenegård County. Residence city was Heinola.
By the Treaty of Fredrikshamn in 1809 Sweden ceded all its territories in Finland, east of the Torne River, to Russia. Kymmenegård Province was succeeded in 1831 by the Mikkeli Province in the autonomous Grand Duchy of Finland. Minor parts of province were merged to Uusimaa Province.
