Tuve Church (Swedish: Tuve kyrka) is a parish church of the Church of Sweden located in the district of Tuve, a suburb of Gothenburg, Sweden. The church serves the Tuve parish within the Diocese of Gothenburg. It functions as a local place of worship for Lutheran congregations and hosts regular religious services, rites such as baptisms, weddings, and funerals, as well as community activities.
The building is situated on a hill that provides visibility over the surrounding residential area. Architectural details are characteristic of Swedish parish churches built in the late 19th to early 20th centuries, featuring a modestly sized nave, a simple wooden or stone façade, and a modest spire or bell tower.
Tuve Church is part of the broader ecclesiastical administration of the Church of Sweden, which maintains records of baptisms, marriages, and deaths for the local population. The church premises also accommodate occasional cultural events, concerts, and meetings that serve the local community.
