Kværndrup is a town located on the island of Funen in south Denmark, in Faaborg-Midtfyn Municipality.
The Egeskov Castle is located about two kilometres from the town, which dates back to the 1400s and is Kværndrup's main attraction.
In the middle of the town lies Kværndrup Church, a Romanesque church with Gothic extensions from the 15th and 16th centuries with a cross-building, tower and porch. It formerly served as a church for Egeskov Castle.
