Der Christus-König-Statue in Lens (Statue du Christ-Roi à Lens) ist eine 15 Meter hohe Christus-Statue in der Gemeinde Lens im Wallis in der Schweiz. Sie soll das 21. Jahrhundert des Sterbens von Jesus Christus markieren. Sie steht über dem Kantonshauptort Sitten und wurde am 22. September 1935 eingeweiht.

Errichtet wurde sie auf dem Gipfel der Colline du Châtelard auf 1272 m. ü. M., symbolträchtig hoch über dem Rhonetal, unweit des unterirdischen Sees von St. Leonard. Sie stellt den krönenden Abschluss der Arbeit des Chorherren Pierre Gard dar.
