The Roman Catholic Episcopal Palace () is a historical monument in Timișoara, Romania. It was built between 1743 and 1752, the building being donated to the Diocese of Timișoara by Empress Maria Theresa. From 1783, the building became the permanent residence of the Catholic bishop. Confiscated during communism, the building was returned to the Catholic Church after 1990, which opened a museum here in 1995, where statues, paintings and other religious exhibits can be seen.
