Gronsveld (Limburgish: Groêselt or Groéselt) is a village in the Dutch province of Limburg. It is part of the municipality of Eijsden-Margraten and situated southeast of the municipality of Maastricht, to which it is bordering.

Gronsveld was a separate municipality until 1982, when it was merged with Eijsden.[3] The municipality also included Rijckholt, Eckelrade, Heugem (now part of Maastricht) and Honthem.

The derivation of the name is uncertain, although it is commonly accepted to be quite literally referring to its evergreen pastures, and indeed the village is favourably situated at the foot of the Margraten Plateau which retains water in its bedrock. This provides for a constant gentle irrigation, and the lush clay soil carried here by the river Meuse is excellent for growing fruit trees.
