Roskilde Håndbold is a handball club from Roskilde, Denmark. Currently, Roskilde Håndbold competes in the women's Danish 1st Division. The home arena of the club is Roskilde Hallerne.

The club has previously been known as Roar Roskilde.

History In 1999 the Danish handball star player Anja Andersen made an attempt to buy the women's team, in an attempt to lift a smaller handball team to the top of the game. This did however not go through as Roskilde Municipality did not wish to cooperate. Instead she invested in Slagelse Dream Team.

In the 2000-01 season the men's team played in the top division, but they were relegated in their first season up.

Roskilde Håndbold cooperates with Sport & Craft, which offers, among other things, fat Roskilde Håndbold handball clothing as well as running and handball shoes. Roskilde Håndbold cooperates with Sportyfied and Select in connection with the purchase of balls, sports care products, resins and similar products.

In the 2010-11 season, the team was relegated after losing the playoff to Silkeborg-Voel KFUM.

The club's women play in the 2019/20 season in the 1st division and the 2nd team plays in the 2nd division. The club's men's team plays in the 1st division and the 2nd team plays in the 3rd division.

In the 2020/2021 season, the women's team gained promotion to the Danish top flight Damehåndboldligaen, but were relegated again after only one season.
