Bydalens gravkapell is a small chapel of rest belonging to Sköns parish, standing in the Svenska Kyrkan tradition on Bydalens kyrkogård beside the Bydalsbäcken stream, in the Haga district of Sundsvall.

The chapel was consecrated in 1929 and designed by the architect Harald Wadsjö. It serves as a burial chapel for the surrounding cemetery, and is also known locally as Byns gravkapell.

There is little published detail about the building's architectural features or interior fittings, and no record here of later alterations or notable furnishings. Visitors should treat it as a modest, functional parish chapel rather than a major historic monument.
