'''Botkyrka Municipality''' ({{audio|sv-Botkyrka.ogg|''Botkyrka''|help=no}} {{lang|sv|kommun}}) is a [[municipalities of Sweden|municipality]] in [[Stockholm County]] in east central [[Sweden]], not far from the capital [[Stockholm]]. Its seat is located in the town of [[Tumba, Sweden|Tumba]].

In 1971 ''Grödinge'' was merged with Botkyrka and in 1974 ''Salem'' was added. The Salem part was split off again in 1983, and a new [[Salem Municipality]] was formed.

Botkyrka has an estimated population of 95,592.

==History==
The municipality is named after [[Saint Botvid]], a [[Christianity|Christian]] [[missionary]] during the 12th century. Saint Botvid is shown on the seal and [[coat of arms]] of Botkyrka Municipality, where he carries an axe and a fish. Another remnant of Botkyrka's Christian [[Middle Ages|medieval]] history is the Botkyrka church, made of stone.

Politically the municipality is primarily [[Swedish Social Democratic Party|Social Democratic]], that has governed Botkyrka for a long period except 3 years in the early 1990s. However, with fewer seats the party now governs together with [[Green Party (Sweden)|The Green Party]], and [[Left Party (Sweden)|The Left Party]]. There have also been several local parties. For a long period a local party called Botkyrkapartiet (The Botkyrka Party) has held several seats. A party was also active from mid 1980s to mid 1990s with only one purpose - to prevent the exploitation of the small airfield, F18, in [[Tullinge]] to become a commercial airport in the 1980s. In the election 2010 a local party for the area of [[Tullinge]] got 6 seats on the agenda of separating Tullinge from Botkyrka as a separate municipality.{{citation needed|date=October 2017}}

Botkyrka has two local, weekly, newspapers called "Mitt i Botkyrka" (Middle of Botkyrka) and "Södra Sidan" (South side). They are delivered free of charge to all households.{{citation needed|date=October 2017}}

The Swedish [[hip hop]] group [[The Latin Kings (hip hop group)|The Latin Kings]] raps about life in Botkyrka in several of their songs.{{citation needed|date=October 2017}}
