Casa Wiechers-Villaronga is a Classical Revival style mansion in Ponce, Puerto Rico, designed and built in the early twentieth century by architect Alfredo B. Wiechers. Acquired and restored by the Institute of Puerto Rican Culture, it now operates as the Museo de la Arquitectura Ponceña within the Ponce Historic Zone. Known as the Villaronga Residence, it is considered an outstanding example of the Classical Revival style used in Ponce in the early part of the twentieth century, and one of only two surviving houses from a series Wiechers designed that shaped the architectural and cultural heritage of the city of Ponce.
