Meløy Church (Norwegian: Meløy kirke) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Meløy Municipality in Nordland county, Norway. It is located in the village of Meløy on the island of Meløya. It is one of the churches for the Fore og Meløy parish which is part of the Bodø domprosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Sør-Hålogaland. The white, wooden church was built in a long church style in 1867 using plans drawn up by the architects Håkon Mosling and Jacob Wilhelm Nordan. The church seats about 600 people, making it the second-largest wooden church in all of Northern Norway (after Vågan Church, the so-called Lofoten Cathedral).
