**Mathilda Grabow** (23 May 1852 – 29 May 1940), was a Swedish [opera singer](/source/Opera_singer) ([soprano](/source/Soprano)). She was a court singer ([Hovsångare](/source/Hovs%C3%A5ngare)) (1886) and a member of the [Royal Swedish Academy of Music](/source/Royal_Swedish_Academy_of_Music) (1895) and was given [Litteris et Artibus](/source/Litteris_et_Artibus) (1895).

She was a student of [Fredrika Stenhammar](/source/Fredrika_Stenhammar) and [Viardot](/source/Viardot) and active at the [Royal Swedish Opera](/source/Royal_Swedish_Opera) in [Stockholm](/source/Stockholm) in 1870–71 and 1877–86, and at the Opera [Palais Garnier](/source/Palais_Garnier) in [Paris](/source/Paris) in 1872–76. She was described as a very versatile artist and considered one of the greatest stars within Swedish opera in the late 19th century. She retired in 1886 and was thereafter only active as a concert singer, except in 1891, when she performed in the last performance in the old building of the Stockholm opera, before the Royal Swedish Opera was moved to a new building.
