Felestad Church, Medieval Lutheran church in Svalöv, Sweden.

The brick church stands on fieldstone foundations with a tower added during the 19th century and features vaulted ceilings replacing the original wooden structure.

Built between 1180 and 1220, the church underwent modifications in the 15th century when workers replaced the wooden ceiling with stone vaults.

The interior contains a 12th-century baptismal font from Gotland and a pulpit from 1601, donated by the Brahe family of Krageholm Castle.

The church maintains an active schedule of services and includes a cemetery, located 25 minutes on foot from Hanksville Farm hotel.

Medieval murals remain visible on the apse walls, while the 17th-century renovation saw the removal of the original church porch.
