Wintergrün (Pyrola) ist eine Pflanzengattung in der Familie der Heidekrautgewächse (Ericaceae). Früher wurden sie als eigene Familie Wintergrüngewächse (Pyrolaceae) behandelt, bei der Angiosperm Phylogeny Group werden sie zu der Unterfamilie Monotropoideae gerechnet. Die etwa 30 Arten sind auf der Nordhalbkugel verbreitet. Nach der Eigenschaft, im Winter die Blätter zu behalten, wird diese Gattung Wintergrün genannt. Wintergrün (Pyrola), genannt auch Birnkraut (lateinisch früher auch Pirola), ist nicht zu verwechseln mit dem Wintergrünstrauch (Gaultheria procumbens).
