Grödinge Church, Medieval stone church in Stockholm County, Sweden.

Grödinge Church is a medieval stone structure positioned on a hilltop, featuring wooden beams inside, stained glass windows, and a bell tower that stands out in the landscape. The building combines sturdy masonry with decorative elements that have been maintained through its long history.

The original Romanesque church was built in the 12th century with a defensive tower to the west. In the early 14th century the nave was replaced and a south porch added, keeping the tower and south wall; the tower now sits off-axis because the nave was widened northward. A new sacristy was built north of the choir in the 15th century, the tower was raised three metres in brick, and the interior received vaulting in three bays. In the 1750s the tower gained two more metres and its present roof.

The church keeps a damaged 12th-century sculpture of the Archangel Michael and a triumphal crucifix from the early 1500s. A copy of the medieval Grödinge tapestry, whose original is in the Swedish History Museum, was donated in 1952 by builder Olle Engkvist. The rune stone Sö 291 stands by the church, while the fragmentary Sö 293 is kept in the porch.

The church belongs to Grödinge församling in the Strängnäs diocese and stands in Grödinge socken, southern Botkyrka kommun. Runstenen Sö 291 stands by the churchyard, while the fragmentary Sö 293 is kept inside the south porch (vapenhus). The medieval Grödingebonaden tapestry is represented by a copy donated in 1952 by builder Olle Engkvist; the original is in the Swedish History Museum.

The churchyard holds runestone Sö 291, while the porch shelters the fragmentary Sö 293. Inside, a copy of the medieval Grödinge tapestry hangs; the original is kept at the Swedish History Museum, and building master Olle Engkvist donated the copy in 1952.
