Høybråten Church (Norwegian: Høybråten kirke) is a church dating from 1932 in Oslo, Norway. It was originally a burial chapel at a cemetery which was consecrated in 1929. However, the church was later rebuilt in 1932, and in 1966 it attained the status of a parish church. One of the largest cemeteries in Oslo still surrounds the church.
The bell tower is located in the middle of the ridge turret. The church bells are produced by Olsen Nauen bell foundry in Tønsberg. The altarpiece is a mosaic that was created in 1955 by Per Vigeland. The church organ at the organ loft is made by Jørgensens Orgelfabrikk (1974).
