Buttle Church, Medieval church in Gotland, Sweden.

The church structure combines a Romanesque architectural base with Gothic elements, featuring a straight east end and a tower added in 1220.

The western section of the choir and nave were constructed in the second half of the 12th century, with subsequent modifications to windows in 1882.

The interior contains medieval murals depicting the Passion of Christ, Saint George and the Dragon, and Saint Martin of Tours painted by the Master.

The church maintains regular Lutheran services within the Diocese of Visby and includes an adjacent cemetery for community use.

The baptismal font from the mid-13th century displays intricate sculptures of human and animal heads at its base.
