Skönsmons gravkapell is a mortuary chapel in Skönsmon, part of Sundsvall in northern Sweden, belonging to Sundsvalls parish within the Church of Sweden. It is a modest twentieth-century building used for funeral services.

The chapel was consecrated in 1985, making it a relatively recent addition to the ecclesiastical buildings of the Sundsvall area. As a purpose-built mortuary chapel rather than a parish church, it has a functional role connected with the adjoining cemetery, and it does not carry the long historical narrative associated with many older Swedish churches.

Little detailed information survives about the chapel's architecture, furnishings or notable features. Visitors interested in ecclesiastical history should be aware that this is a simple, practical building of its era rather than one with elaborate decoration or a lengthy history to explore.
