Harstad Church (Norwegian: Harstad kirke) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Harstad Municipality in Troms county, Norway. It is located in the town of Harstad. It is the church for the Harstad parish which is part of the Trondenes prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nord-Hålogaland. The white, concrete church was built in a long church style in 1958 by the architect Jan Inge Hovig. The church seats about 600 people.
The church was one of the first arbeidskirker in Norway. This type of church is a more modern church that includes a church hall, office, kitchen, and bathrooms as opposed to the traditional one-room churches that were built for centuries in Norway.
