Ekeby is a populated area, a socken (not to be confused with parish), on the Swedish island of Gotland.[3] It comprises the same area as the administrative Ekeby District, established on 1 January 2016.[4]
Ekeby is situated in the northern central part of Gotland.[5] The medieval Ekeby Church is located in the socken.[6] As of 2019[update], Ekeby Church belongs to Dalhem parish in Romaklosters pastorat, along with the churches in Dalhem, Ganthem and Hörsne.[7][8]
