Gudridur Thorbjarnardottir was an Icelandic explorer who lived in Iceland around the year 1000. She was the first woman to give birth to a child of European heritage in the New World (about 1004).

After refusing a marriage proposal, she left Iceland with her father to accompany Erik the Red (or Eiríkr rauði in Old Norse), whose son Þorsteinn she wed. They undertook an unsuccessful voyage to Vinland. In the end, her husband died after they had arrived in Greenland. After this, she stayed in Greenland and moved to Brattahlíð, where she then married a salesman named Þorfinnur Karlsefni Þórdarson. She once again tried to reach Vinland, where at last Þorfinnur's and Guðríður's son Snorri Þorfinnsson was born. Three years later they moved back to Iceland by way of Norway.

After her son got married, Guðríður went on a pilgrimage to Rome. While she was away, Snorri built a church near the estate. When she came back from Rome, she became a nun and lived in the church as a hermit.
